We now have an excellent handyman who provides detailed receipts and photos but most other service provides don't.

(must live in it first and hope to only live for a year before moving to a home for my partner and myself)Anyway I am trying to sort out an excel spreadsheet that has - a list of properties- what they are listed for- what I would like to get them for- rent- rate costs and extra expenses- loan repayments- monthly and yearly income- and ROII am just having a bit of trouble understanding how I work ROI out.My first example is 50k of my own money with a yearly return of $1872Do I do 1872/50000?

Having others pay your mortgage or reducing it down to a few hundred dollars is a huge win as well.

The investor is interested in the Darby, Upper Darby and West Philly market because of the low cost of entry, high rental rates and excellent appreciation.

My thought process is, I don't see the price of E going down anytime, and if we can at the very least lower the majority of our bill with these panels, it's a win. 

Additionally, the value I added was thoughtful win-win negotiation as the agent to ensure all parties walked away happy.

Does anyone have or recommend any calculators (online or excel) for seeing numbers on rentals, BRRRRs, short-term, etc?

Make sure your agents understands this and that you know that you'll have to make a lot of offers, very quickly to win a deal. 

I admire how you put yourself out there to learn in the real world and talk about specifics instead of trying to do it all in Excel -- I think that's what many people miss.Siempre adelante!

My college buddy helped educate me on this opportunity and made it clear how it is a win-win for myself!
