@Mike Bowling check out the tools on the BP website (after you have signed in) Great tool for this, regarding an excell spreadsheet, you’d have to go into the files section of BP.

Anyone know of any websites, groups, associations, friends, etc. that invest in these types of deals?

Many websites list the monthly instead of yearly. 

Hi @Matthew Groves - start with Zillow, find someone with a lot of positive reviews.

Have you checked with INREIA's website?  

Those numbers can be found on the JC website.

It has been 2 years since i left the military, now attending college for a surgical tech position in the near future.

Do you suggest it or advise keeping to the professional websites?

Our strategy is to buy and hold, benefit from the positive monthly cash flows, and sell after about 5 years of stress free property management.The issue I am having is selecting finishes that are reasonably affordable (dare I say cheap), durable for renters, and still get top $ on an appraisal when we go to refinance.
