Hi Cynthia,You are on the right track with your analysis. 

I am at a stage where I have few rentals.

I think the key for people like us is to just get started, and not fall into what they call "Analysis Paralysis".

For whatever reason the report is stuck and saying the "purchase" portion isn't filled out, and won't let me complete the analysis. weird because I have every bar and fill in spot, all filled in.
