homemade ROI calculator from Newbie - PLEASE REVIEW!
Hello Friends,
I wanted to find out ROI on my investment and I have come up with basic calculator. I wanted someone to review my personalized calculator and suggest any edits.
Monthly rent (and other additional perks)
(less) vacancy loss
Gross monthly operating income (A)
(less) Monthly operating expenses (B)
- Property management
- Property taxes
- Utilities
- HOA (if applicable)
- Repairs and maintenance
Net Operating Income C = A-B
Net Annual Operating Income D = C * 12
Cap rate = Net Annual Operating Income / Purchase price
Down Payment = (This is my own investment)
Monthly Mortgage (Principal)
Monthly Mortgage (Interest)
Cash Flow Annual = (Gross Monthly operating income – Monthly Operating expenses – Monthly Mortgage (Principal + Interest) ) * 12
Cash on Cash Return = Cash flow Annual / Down payment
Taxable deduction
- From Interest deduction
- From operating expense deduction
- From ownership expense deduction(Depeciation) = Purchase price / 27.5
Saved in Taxes = Taxable deduction * (your income tax bracket)
Increased Equity = Annual Monthly mortgage (Principal component)
Total returns = Annual Cash flow + Saved in Taxes + Increased Equity
ROI = Total / Returns Down payment
What typical ROI is reasonable to expect from 2-4 unit multifamily rental unit?
Thanks
