rental calculator format

I just started using the rental calculator again. It looks very different from what I remember from a few years back and different from some of the ones I've seen shared in this forum. 

Here's an example of the share link I'm getting: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

The others I've seen seem to show more detail and numbers. Am I doing something wrong or is this the new format?

I like the old calculator much better. I can see my soft costs and my true cash flow much easier.

 Thank you! I like the old calculator much better. However, Something is not right. I pulled up the old and new side by side, entered the same numbers, and the results are very different. Even the monthly cashflow doesn't add up. 

The calculations are off, even on the fix/flip calculator. I sent an email and the response was to use the old calculator lol.

Wow. Why don't they just take the new calculator down? If the calculations are wrong and not in the favor of an investor sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. (I'm in California...sue happy land)



Someone from BP posted in another thread that the calculators were taken down until the bugs are corrected. The calculators are cool but honestly you can't beat an old fashioned excel spreadsheet :-).

Couldn’t agree more! (But I’m obviously biased given my profile!)
