How to read the deal analysis
Start with the property's current rents and known expenses, then add realistic vacancy, repair, capital-expense, and management assumptions. The calculator updates the operating income, financing, and cash-flow metrics together so one optimistic input does not stay hidden.
What does it estimate?
Cap rate, cash on cash return, gross rent multiplier, debt service coverage, net operating income, and annual cash flow based on the values you enter.
What is not included?
Appreciation, depreciation, income taxes, property-condition surprises, and individualized loan terms. Treat the result as a first-pass comparison, not an appraisal, loan quote, or tax recommendation.
Why include reserves?
Vacancy, repairs, capital expenses, and management change estimated operating income and cash flow. Omitting them can overstate the strength of the entered plan.
What should you verify?
Confirm rents, leases, utility responsibility, taxes, insurance, repair history, and financing with source documents and the appropriate licensed professionals before relying on an analysis.
