About Real Estate
Real estate investment involves purchasing property to generate income or appreciate in value. This calculator helps evaluate potential returns from rental income and property appreciation while accounting for mortgage costs and expenses.
How It’s Calculated
Cash Flow:
Monthly Cash Flow = Monthly Rent - Monthly Expenses
Annual Cash Flow = Annual Rent - Annual Expenses
Property Value:
Property Value = Initial Value × (1 + Appreciation Rate)^Years
Return on Investment:
Total Return = Property Value + Cumulative Cash Flow - Initial Investment
Annualized ROI = (Total Return / Initial Investment) / Years × 100
