Understanding Your Dashboard

Managing Your Investments

Stessa's dashboards offer a comprehensive view of your investment performance. They help you move beyond day-to-day tasks and focus on the metrics that matter most to your real estate success, so you can make smarter decisions and optimize your portfolio.


Getting Started with Dashboards

Stessa dashboards are automatically set up to compute essential metrics based on:

  • Current month transactions

  • Property valuations

  • Account balances

The dashboards are intuitive and easy to use, so you can quickly assess key performance indicators for your portfolio.


Understanding the Portfolio Dashboard

The Portfolio Dashboard, also known as the All Properties Dashboard, consolidates data from all properties in your portfolio and calculates essential investment metrics.

Key Metrics

  • Net Worth: The total of market values, outstanding loan balances, and available cash, representing the net worth of your entire real estate portfolio.

  • Cash on Cash Return: Measures investment performance, considering cash flow, actual cash invested, debt, and capital expenses. Learn more about cash on cash return.
