return on investment calculation
Hello BP members!
I am selling a rental duplex In Barrie Ontario and wondering if the math i did for estimated return on investment in 5 years is correct.
(just to clarify , my question is not if the numbers i present in section A are correct.
I am just asking if the math i did on section B is correct .)
A assuming the following :
purchase price: $539,900
buyer /investor pays 20% down payment : $107,980
mortgage rate fix for 5 years 3.4%
annual appreciation on this market 5%
assuming cash flow of the property is 0 (tenant rent pays all expenses including mortgage)
B annual return on investment :
after 5 years the market value of the house based on 5% appreciation per year, would be $689,900
mortgage balance at end of 5 years term $386,593
equity in property after 5 years: $303,307
net profit (equity minus down payment) $195,327
profit per year $39,065
annual return on investment (profit per year divided by down payment) = 36% annual return on investment
make sense?
thanks for your time
