- Description: What this is, who it's for, and the three things to do first.
- Author: Jon

This is a weekly email for people who manage their own rentals: 1 unit or 20, still self-managed.

**The goal is simple:** spend less time on paperwork, know your numbers, and be ready for tax time.

## Do these three things first

1. **Grab the free** [**Single-Property Tracker**](https://payhip.com/b/DORST?ref=landlordsheet.com)**.** Subscribe and it's in your welcome email.
2. **Log last month.** Enter rent collected and every expense. It takes about 15 minutes, and you'll see your real cash flow.
3. **Keep receipts in one place,** a single folder or email label. Future-you at tax time will be grateful.

## What's coming

Every week you'll get one tool, one checklist, or one number to watch. When you outgrow one property, the [Toolkit](https://landlordsheet.com/toolkit/) covers bookkeeping, deal analysis, and operations.
