Unfortunately, there are so many concerns regarding internet safety issues.

At the end of the day if you run your numbers and analyze like 10 properties a day, and every single day scour the internet for anything new, you will eventually find something that works and know it almost immediately.

My net number is rental income minus expenses(3 mortgages, paying power bill at all three houses, property tax, insurance, internet in two properties).

Ultimately it's less of a science than an art, but people rarely truly change so what they did is probably what they'll do.

I do not wish to waste my time watching videos,searching the internet for how tos and what I should be doing.

Hi Pamela,The kind of guide you're trying to create can already found all over the internet and are very easy to find and some of them, written by other real estate agencies, are pretty good.

You’re going to deduct your tax prep, your internet, your cellphone, your computer, your tablet, your mileage if you’re involved in the properties, your home office, etc etc.

If you aren't an excel expert I wouldn't bother trying to make your own or scour the internet for an analyzer tool that may or may not meet your needs. 

(Like I think Craigslist is still one of the best websites on the internet, but for some people it's a total turn-off because it still looks like 1995).Capterra.com is a great site for research in this category (and business software in general). 

Basic staging with an agent usually means they give you insight into how you should:Declutter and depersonalize by removing photos and personal itemsArrange your furniture to improve the room’s flow and make it feel biggerAdd plants, move art, or re-arrange other accessoriesFull-service staging is another option if your house needs more hands-on attention.
