I am overwhelmed by the number of different formulas that are out there for rental property investing and I don't want to overpack for lack of better words my investing formula arsenal so I would like to know what ones are the best to use and whyThe ones I currently use include: COC, NOI (and NIAF), Cap rate, ROR, ROI, and IRR=But I also have heard of NPV, I am also not including any "rule formulas" aka 1% and 50% as those are simply guidelines to follow and not complicated formulasLet me know if I am missing any or don't even need to use some of the ones I am usingThank you,Peyton LaBarbera

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23DSCR lenders generally let you vest either individually or as an LLC.

I'm considering hiring a company that will meet with me and design our flips from studs to finished product, including the functionality of the property to the actual finishes used; i.e. the design of the flip.
