Happy to discuss if you feel the need.

For those that do not feel comfortable enough with excel to build out a tool on your own, I would suggest starting by taking excel courses focused on dynamic real estate modeling.

What was the event or action you took that no longer made you feel like an imposter but a real investor?

Much of my career for the last decade has been in Cybersecurity, and we feel the same about DOJ and regulations around incidents.

I feel like I’m missing the bigger picture of what makes a property a great investment opportunity.If anyone could share some pointers or insights on how to identify a “good deal,” I’d really appreciate it!

I feel as though my home is priced too high, however, my property manager insists the price is competitive.  

I have been frustrated with multiple things that my current property management company has been doing, and I don't feel like they communicate very well with me.

To rent the home, I would lose about $2,500 per month (based on comparable rents in my area, property management fees, etc).Both options loose the same amount by roughly 2 years, and by this time, I still will not have built up much more equity in the home to make selling it a break even unless there is price appreciation by then.My dilemma is this: I speculate that my home will not appreciate much in the next 3-5 years due to the rapid pace of development in the surrounding area.In 5-10+ years, maybe, but by then I'll have bled $150,000 - $300,000.I have thought about this a lot and feel that I mar'-too close to the problem to see the best solution.
