What's the easiest way to fill out the prelim HUD forms?

Guys, I’m getting back into the game… any tips on the most efficient way of filling out the HUD-1 to submit with the offer on short sales?

My title company now does them for their investors but I like to do them myself so I don’t have to wait on it to come back. I use an excel spreadsheet and since the title costs are the same, all I have to do is update the seller info, the PP, taxes, and any other misc fees/costs to arrive at the NET for the lender(s).

You can download the HUD-1 directly from HUD.
