FOr example temp. was be a min. of 68 degrees between 6 am and 10 PM and from 10 PM to 6 am it can drop back to 63 or somewhere around there.My tenants now pay all their own heat so I am not that well versed with the laws anymore.Is landlord supplying heat or are you paying for it?

Property taxes can and do vary widely.

Consider the varying laws from state to state as well when using those general law sites.

The return metrics really vary by product type.

there are some insurance ones that are downloadable - the data is what they often charge for - it varies by area - labor and materials - so you need to get a feel of prices for materials then for your area's labor charges and the time needed - then you can calc it out or write your own spreadsheet - using a computer mostly, I am not sure a phone app would be able to store the data needed - but you could just memorize things like the cost to gut renovate a kitchen or bath as was suggested and how much a roof or flooring costs psf

It seems that different investors retail price their homes at wildly varying markups.

You're welcome - and your votes are appreciated as well :D The company name was selected to allow for varied interpretations; the potential for a pun is one of them.
