The way I calculate COC:Rent (Tax/Insurance/P&I/Maintenance)= Profit (I self manage and own in 0 vacancy areas)Take that profit and divide by my downpayment + closing costs (if any) + repairs = Year 1 COC returnYear 2 COC return I only count the down payment because I am not making repairs againIt's probably not 100% accurate because some would argue I should count the repairs and closing costs indefinitely but my Year 2 COC return cannot be under 15% and I prefer if Year 1 is above 15% but that's very hard in today's environment.
