I mean, I could try to just memorize the math..The tool is called Cashflow Analyzer Pro with Deal Instant Analyzer from Asset AFC.

it will be a corporate/wellness retreat/short term rental destinationI need land that is close to the Action, but not too close, and preferably comes with two single family doors already built, so I can take advantage of Fannie Mae owner occupied loan and develop the rest of the land on my own and with private funding.Is Columbus a good market for this strategy?

I haven't worked with anything but hardwood and tile in recent years but would prefer a cheaper, waterproof option if it looks decent.
