    I truly wish there was a property calculator that didn't require me to belong to another online group (FB). I would even be willing to pay a monthly fee with game coins, or a few DJ/FP, to have access to it.

    In game coin/DJ points are non transferable so how would that even work? The property calculator you speak of is 3rd party.

    you could always take the time to make a excel sheet on the properties, years ago I had one. and before anyone asks, I tried too find it for someone last fall and it has been either deleted or lost between usb drives

    I use a spread sheet for lcn. I don't play the other games but, am surprised kano hasn't come up with the idea of letting you buy/hire a real estate agent with fp (whatever your game uses as currency) to either guide your property purchases or just make the purchases for you. I figured it would be another revenue stream for them. Maybe not a big one but, every little bit I'm sure they would like to capitalize on. I also don't like having to join other groups/social media or whatever to gain these advantages.

    I have a spreadsheet, it is relatively easy to set up, with little more than a basic understanding of spreadsheets.

    I have a basic understanding of excel and I wouldnt know where to start with this to be honest. Im sure there must be pretty simple calculations behind it all, but as I say, I wouldnt know where to start! lol

    I have 2 spreadsheets I use, one to determine what properties to buy; the other provides an analysis of income from various locations, and provides income projections, etc. I myself use Apache OpenOffice, but I can make something available for Excel formats as well. I am working on a blank version of both spreadsheets for public use. It may be a couple of days before I finish that though.

    well, if you look at the bigger picture, always better to buy properties from the current location even though it's expensive if you wanna see big difference in bounty.

    I don't think it always is, that's the entire point of the calculators. That coin may very well be better invested in lower level properties, depending on how you've staggered your purchases. Following your idea might slow down your income and bounty cost.

    Apologies on the delay, life sometimes gets a bit crazy and I forget things. Here is a .zip file with the purchase calculator I use. It's not really blank, I have used a default cost of 1,000,000 coins. I have sorted the properties based on locations, and then again on income from the properties within each section. There is an .ods file for Apache OpenOffice, and an .xls file for Excel 97/2000/XP. I can make another available for Excel 95 if anybody needs it. There are some basic instructions at the bottom of the sheet, just make sure you select the entire rows for all properties and sort the list on Column E in Ascending order. It's pretty simple to use though. Enjoy.

    I haven't finished a blank version of the analysis spreadsheet I use yet, it's a much larger beast, and there is an unknown variance at work. My income from the game is not the same as the analysis sheet says it should be, so I am trying to work out where the variance is coming from. It seems to grow by a billion coins or so with each new property purchase, and I've already double, triple and quadruple checked the numbers from my personal rule and the spreadsheet matches for numbers of properties, just not total income...

    Not the case, really. Davey Jones Locker will provide far better income for the investment than any location from Bahamas to Afterworld. For me, I derive just under 5% of my total income from Davey Jones Locker currently; but some of the later locations, such as Bombay, Aurora Glacier and Fiddlers Green, I derive less than 1% of my total income. It is only after reaching Alexandria that I find better buys on the latest world, and even then, I sometimes still have to travel back to previous locations to get the greatest benefit for a given investment.
