Quote from @Gary Abrams: Software is a common question on BiggerPockets.

My coach suggested (and I implemented) a "must do tracker"....it's a color coded spreadsheet (I like to print multiple copies and keep them on a clipboard to stay in my sight/top of mind). 

Most, if not all are in older neighborhoods without a HOA and on the bus line. 

It makes the math very tough on purchasing, at least from my perspective. 

My plan is to mainly focus on cash flowing properties that make the 2% rule. 

But on that note I do use about 4 different data sources for comp'ing the property's rental price estimate for my clients.

I saw Macon in your subject line and just assumed Georgia!

I am responding as a consumer not a STR owner we had one its lasted for us for exactly one tenant then we felt it was too much work for the return  on investment we do much better loaning money and buidling new homes than to worry about people goofing up our homes :)I do have some MTR you know fully furnished homes in Vegas and those are money makers for us top of the line tneants paying double the going rate for rent.

The price of the investment and the return on capital is AMAZING!!!

hyper forcus on one area and go under contract directly with the sellers.
