Excellent so far! 

You can look at a mobile home and see it as an easy rental with new carpet, trim and some paint but there are other bigger uglier expenses that can come up.Roof Replacement, soft floors (water damage) in kitchens and bathrooms- most floors are particle board, exterior door replacement (special order), underbelly insulation falling, bad hot water tanks with rotten floor underneath (real joy), bad windows (water again), bad bloated siding (water), water damaged base frame around perimeter of home, cracked tubs (special orders) and frozen pipes (Good luck finding a plumber to come work on a mobile home- they do not exist). 

I make sure they're well insulated, have replacement windows, spend more on nice flooring that looks great (plank style / wood-look porcelain tile, hardwood or click-together LVT planks, not peel-and-stick squares). 

Oklahoma is excellent for flipping, as well as for buying and holding. 

I'm also looking to get my hands on a good calculator for short term rentals since I'm terrible with Excel and only have a calculator for long term rentals that I know is missing sections that are specific to short term.Any help you can give me would be very much appreciated :) BiggerPockets has an Airbnb calculator, and I see that you're a pro member.Since you've read the STR book and done other education, you know HOW to pick a market lol.

These tend to offer personalized service without getting lost in the shuffle.Verify Their Specialization: Some companies are better with single-family homes, while others excel with multi-family units.

Those who excel are generally focused on specific asset types whether it be Restaurant/Hospitality; Office, Industrial etc.

Credit reporting is a no-brainer, and Baselane is excellent for releasing it!

Or, is there a manual workaround like keeping track in a Google Sheet or Excel?
