I'm looking more for an overarching portfolio spreadsheet to track asset performance over the lifetime of holding the asset.If you have the property manager paying the mortgages, taxes, insurances, doing all the accounting, etc why not just ask them to generate whatever report you want?

@Ali HamadeSince your property is ideal for house hacking and generating rental income, targeting an investor-friendly audience is a smart approach.

Consequently, your financial stability hinges on the emergence of new companies generating equivalent employment opportunities.Sufficient to Replace Your Current IncomeA single property is unlikely to generate enough rental income to replace your current income, so you'll need multiple properties.
