My end goal is to fine turn my analytical abilities.

The analytical skills you will learn in school (and more so the job) are useful in many different areas of life. 

I'm an engineer so I'm very analytical and need to see it to believe it.

Unless you are on an interest only loan, your tenants will pay down your principal balance for you over time and you will eventually be left with a free and clear property or the opportunity to tap the equity without selling via cash out refinance.The beast way IMO to combine all of these profit centers in a single analytical framework is to make some fair, conservative projections over the life of the investment and compute IRR.

The best way IMO to combine them in a single analytical framework is to project out the financials and compute the IRR.

Given the time frames and costs, one needs to be very analytical in approach or they will lose their shirt.  

Their explanation is that they rely on their own analytics.  

I do have experience in marketing especially on Facebook  where we spend a lot of time/analytics/ resources on FB Ads.

Areas where I will add value to your project or projects would include: tax savings, analytical analysis, painting, repairs, maintenance, budgeting, bookkeeping, and property management (to name a few).

I'd like to start paying something, at least the cost of a Plus membership, and I'd like to have access to some of the analytical tools as well.
