Have you calculated the monthly appreciation on the CA home you sold?  

I am reading some books from BiggerPockets and I am having trouble with the calculations for expenses. 

i may have misspoke. the seller wants 2.2M but that is not what i offered him or agreed to.i think for this area 1.925M to 2.025 is the range.i am using 85% instead of 70% rule in this calculation. 

However, there are some out there that will use AirDNA type sites to calculate income. 

However, if they do, they are likely just 'okay' with it and would likely leverage the 10-07 market rent analysis on the appraisal to actually calculate and determine the official DSCR during Underwriting.Hope that helps, if you do have a tenant who is willing to be flexible, the 12 month is always the safest bet.

Calculate the After Repair Value (ARV), or the expected market value following repairs, and estimate the expenditures associated with those improvements.

You do need Form 4797 to calculate and report depreciation recapture and pay tax on this portion. 

Be calculated in how you approach investing as there are many risks to it.

So now you open your excel sheet and type in the numbers to calculate if you had a loss or profit.
