  1. Open the Rent roll tab and replace the sample rows with your own — one row per entry. Formulas fill in automatically for new rows.
  2. Keep one row per unit, vacant ones included. Record what each tenant paid this month; Balance turns red for anyone short.
  3. Days to lease end goes amber inside 60 days so you can start renewals; the Portfolio tab shows occupancy and collections.
  4. Using Google Sheets? Upload the file to Google Drive, then open it with Google Sheets (or File → Import in an open sheet). Formulas, dropdowns and highlights carry over.

The file opens locally on your device — nothing is uploaded, and you own the copy outright.
