@Bailey RentzStessa is an excellent platform for tracking income and expenses for investors; it is user-friendly.

Although some unexpected costs arose during renovations, close collaboration with Carol ensured the project stayed on track, resulting in a successful outcome.

We need to start tracking the stats that count around here!

One area can show great signs but literally cross the railroad tracks and it’s a different world.Be aware of these types of physical delineation.If you are getting no demand from qualified applicants then I would say it’s not in a margin of a gentrifying neighborhood.  

After she gave me the numbers, I calculated the rehab to be around $16,000 which I was fine with.I saw on the app we use to track expenses that there were small charges for the rehab which I was fine with.

From what I read, I think you are on track for success. 

I'm also working on a Google Data Analyst certification to bring in some extra income while I'm home with our 19-month-old daughter.I'm still pretty new to this, though, and I'm not sure where to start or if I'm on the right track.

@Alec DresslerYou’re on the right track using tools like AirDNA, but for better data, consider the paid version or platforms like Mashvisor for detailed rental analytics.

If, a year from now, you have an extra $20k piled up because you have been serious about this, it established a bit of a track record and proves that you are a doer and not just a dreamer.I would also express gratitude that you have a partner that is so cautious.

@Vidit Maini Starting your business as an LLC taxed as a C corporation offers flexibility but involves double taxation unless you elect S corp status, allowing profits to pass through to your personal return.For tax savings, deduct startup costs, track business mileage or vehicle expenses, and consider a home office deduction.
