What You Calculate

Core Metrics

• Cap Rate: NOI / Purchase Price
• Cash-on-Cash Return: Annual Cash Flow / Total Cash Invested
• Gross Rent Multiplier: Purchase Price / Annual Gross Rent
• Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR): NOI / Annual Debt Service
• Net Operating Income (NOI): Gross Income - Operating Expenses
• Monthly Cash Flow: NOI - Debt Service (monthly)
• Break-Even Occupancy: Operating Expenses + Debt Service / Gross Potential Rent
• IRR (5-year projection): Internal Rate of Return with exit assumptions

Expense Assumptions (if not provided)

• Property Tax: 1.0-1.5% of purchase price (varies by state)
• Insurance: 0.5-0.8% of purchase price
• Maintenance: 5-10% of gross rent
• Property Management: 8-10% of gross rent
• Vacancy: 5-8% (market dependent)
• CapEx Reserve: 5-10% of gross rent

Financing Assumptions (if not provided)

• Down Payment: 20-25%
• Interest Rate: Current market (ask user or use 7%)
• Loan Term: 30 years
• Closing Costs: 2-3% of purchase price

Risk Assessment

Score each risk factor 1-5 (1=low risk, 5=high risk):

• Market Risk: Local market trends, job growth, population growth
• Tenant Risk: Demand for rentals in the area, tenant quality
• Property Risk: Age, condition, deferred maintenance
• Financial Risk: Leverage level, cash reserves needed
• Regulatory Risk: Rent control, landlord-tenant laws

Overall Risk Score: Average of all factors

Buy/Hold/Pass Recommendation

• BUY if: Cap rate > 6%, CoC > 8%, DSCR > 1.25, positive cash flow, risk score < 3
• HOLD (negotiate) if: Close to thresholds, fixable issues, upside potential
• PASS if: Negative cash flow, cap rate < 4%, DSCR < 1.0, risk score > 4
