Wondering how to figure the cash on cash ROI based on the daily interest calculation and accelerated payment.thanks

You need to know how to run numbers and figure out what makes a property a good flip or solid long-term rental.

And I had stopped working on those about a year ago when I made the transition over to Full View.I/we have no mortgages, no car loans, no student loans, and a credit card we pay off monthly.I'm just looking to figure out how big of an issue it is that I am not keeping a monthly personal financial statement should I seek a loan?

Depreciation is easy to figure, however it took me a while to get the double entries down in the books -- ie accumulated depreciation, cost basis etc.  

I am trying to figure out if I should also max out my own personal Roth IRA in the S&P or just use all my money towards RE.

Figuring out your ARV is the most important thing you can learn so great questions.
