Formula Used

The calculator uses these key formulas:

Loan Payment = P * (r(1+r)^n) / ((1+r)^n - 1) Where: P = Principal (Purchase Price - Down Payment) r = Monthly Interest Rate (APR/12) n = Number of Payments (Loan Term in Months)
Monthly Cash Flow = Rental Income - (Loan Payment + Operating Expenses)
ROI = (Annual Cash Flow / Total Investment) * 100
Break-Even Period = Total Investment / Annual Cash Flow

Where:

  • Purchase Price = $350,000
  • Down Payment = User input
  • Loan Amount = Purchase Price - Down Payment
  • APR = Annual Percentage Rate
  • Loan Term = Length of loan in years
  • Rental Income = Monthly rental income
  • Operating Expenses = Monthly property expenses

Worked Example

Let's calculate a $350,000 rental property with these assumptions:

  • Down payment: 20% ($70,000)
  • Loan amount: $280,000
  • APR: 6.5%
  • Loan term: 30 years
  • Monthly rental income: $2,500
  • Monthly operating expenses: $1,200

Example Results

Monthly loan payment: $1,723.12

Monthly cash flow: $2,500 - ($1,723.12 + $1,200) = $576.88

Annual cash flow: $576.88 × 12 = $6,922.56

Total investment: $70,000 (down payment) + $280,000 (loan) = $350,000

ROI: ($6,922.56 / $350,000) × 100 = 1.98%

Break-even period: $350,000 / $6,922.56 ≈ 50.6 months

This example shows a modest ROI of 1.98% and a break-even period of about 4.2 years. The actual results will vary based on your specific numbers and market conditions.

Interpreting Results

When using this calculator, consider these key metrics:

  • Cash Flow: Positive cash flow means the property generates income. Negative cash flow indicates you're losing money.
  • ROI: A higher ROI is generally better, but consider the risk of the investment.
  • Break-Even Period: Shorter is better, but don't ignore the long-term potential.
  • Debt Service Ratio: Shows what percentage of income goes to loan payments.

Important Notes
