Yes. Every SailsAndShore workbook ships with both formats: a native Excel .xlsx file and a Google Sheets version. You get both in the same download — use whichever you prefer.
How many tabs does Home Improvement Project Planner have?
Home Improvement Project Planner has 7 pre-wired tabs — all connected by formulas so numbers roll up automatically. No blank cells, no setup required. Open, plug in your data, done.
Does Home Improvement Project Planner sync with my bank account?
No — by design. Every SailsAndShore workbook is offline and private. Your financial data never leaves your machine. You manually enter transactions, which is what most privacy-conscious buyers actually prefer.

Yes. Expenses categorize into standard IRS categories (Schedule C, Schedule E where applicable), and there's a tax-summary tab you can print and hand your CPA.
Can I use Home Improvement Project Planner on Mac?
Yes. Works in Excel for Mac, Numbers (with minor conversion), and Google Sheets in any browser. The .xlsx format is universal.

No. The formulas are already written. You type in your data, the dashboards update automatically. If you can enter a number in a spreadsheet cell, you can use this workbook.

One-time. Pay $8.63 once, keep the file forever. No renewals, no cancellations, no ads. If you like it, you own it.
