But for anyone who just has rental properties that they report on a 1040 tax return (not in a partnership), I would suggest considering rental property management software rather than general accounting software.  

I tried in my market which is the 2nd biggest to New York, so pricing for ads was really high and the return was not great.

I built this budget template based on my research but am only seeing bad investment returns / don't really know what I'm doing and would appreciate any feedback you all have to offer.

Complexity of return (many things such as # of states, # of properties, 1031 exchanges, etc)2.

• Investing in High-Cost Markets: The Bay Area is an expensive market, but we’re open to exploring out-of-state opportunities if they provide better returns.

@Daniel Reed, cost of money is killing good returns these days. 

But you're going to have to offer something in return.  

In any case, I doubt many people on BP would want to buy properties in Switzerland given the very low returns that can be achieved there.

.- Plan: postcard-size tax returns.

Loopnet any deal older than 12 months, Tax GIS consistently late or 6 months past due, any property that changed hands thru probate after 12 months, Texas property tax sales land only not at auction just offlist properties, etc7.
