As for the rest, there are major differences between Net Operating Income and Net Annual Income (or annual Cash Flow – which I consider the real measure of an investment performance, how much money puts in my pocket on a regular basis) and Cash on Cash Return on Investment.Net Operating Income is calculated before debt.Net Operating Income = Gross_Annual_Rent – (Vacancy + Operating_Expenses)Where Operating Expenses = Taxes + Insurance + Monthly HOA x 12 + Monthly Management Fee x 12 + Repairs and Incidentals (Warranty, Utilities if any paid by owner and/or during vacancy, CapEx reserves, etc., don’t forget the CPA and Lawyer costs) Again Net Operating Income is calculated before debt - what matters more is the NET Annual Income (or annual cash flow): NET Annual Income = Net_Operating_Income - Mortgage_PaymentsAnd that leads to the Cash on Cash Return on Investment: C/C ROI = Annual Cash Flow / (Down Payment + Closing Costs)And I’m willing to bet you don’t get C/C ROI above 10% on any SFR in Austin area (based on these calculations and bought with conventional means, not subject-to or assumptions, or owner financing or other creative financing).
