I'm not affiliated with them in any way, but I've seen the BP glossary and other sites and personally I prefer the clear, concise explanation - and especially the inclusion of formulas - that dealcheck.io provides.I'm still in a pre-first-deal phase of my REI journey, but I'm starting to create/customize my own spreadsheets and information cheat-sheets to have at the ready as I feel I'm now sufficiently informed to get off the bench and into the game.I hope you find it useful in your journey as well.

Elyse Moore thanks, and yes we are aware of the environment. my son is an engineer for wainwright located in Naperville. the schools are a plus but at the same time he can live in ether market, so before buying a multi-family we are looking at both markets to find the best fit and tenant laws compared to landlord laws.

I have held quite a few properties over the years in Gainesville and you need to understand the environment and market.
