See what we can do now to build equity instead of waiting on the LV market to improve and continue renting here in Vegas (we have a really good rate with our landlord) and instead buy our personal home in Texas as a secondary residence so that we can start creating equity sooner (its a beautiful manufactured home so not a huge mortgage).

It's "live" as it updates behind the scene everytime you look at it, since various items might reach their lifetime expectancy and, based on that, should be replaced (obviously, they can fail much sooner, or last much longer than that).Using that spreadsheet I know what how much I should save in capital expense for each property every month, per year, which ones are past their lifetime and due for replacement, and a total for all properties (if all was to fail at the same time).

As elections get closer we will likely see consumer confidence start to become more uncertain due to the political climate and then resume again after elections are finalized.ibuyers and hedge funds are also ramping up acquisitions which is further pushing demand and lack of affordability.If/when the Feds do lower rates we will see a temporary improvement in affordability, however we do expect that small window to close quickly as lower rates will bring a lot of pent up demand back into the market which will push home values higher and cause affordability to worsen.With all factors considered here in the local Las Vegas and Henderson market we are encouraging buyers to buy sooner rather than later while they can get lower prices and seller concessions and then if needed refi later when rates come down and they have more equity.

Single store just doesn't cut it and the model lends itself well to economies of scale...supply chain, GM across multiple stores, etc...Only looked at fast food and gyms but I'll check out UPS.
