Let's talk about Calculating Numbers on a Rental Property [The Easy Way]. This is a proven model that we've been using to analyze our rental property purchases. Keep in mind, we do this BEFORE we buy a rental property. If you're looking to buy your next rental property, you can use our analysis method to determine whether you're going to have a positive cashflow or not. Get FREE Rental Comps: http://rentalcomps.thekwakbrothers.com When calculating numbers on a rental property, we first start with the Gross Market Rent. Now you can get an estimated market rent from a tool we like to use called "Rent-O-Meter" (http://rentalcomps.thekwakbrothers.com). Be mindful that when determining the market rent that you are comparing "Apples-to-Apples". Same bedroom counts, same bathroom counts, similar square footages, etc. Second, we subtract the following expenses. Now, if you have an exact figure for what the expenses are going to be, the better. But... For just an estimate, we account for these expenses: 1) 10% of gross rental for Management Cost (whether you hire out or you do it yourself) 2) 10% of gross rental for Maintenance (also for reserves) 3) 8% of gross rental for Vacancy Reserves and Costs 4) Property Taxes (1/12) 5.) Estimated Insurance Cost - You can call your insurance agent/broker to get an estimated quote for the rental property. The final number should be your Net Operating Income or NOI. This is the final profit before debt service (mortgage payments). Now of course, we have to factor in debt service (in other words, debt payment). You're going to take your monthly NOI and subtract it by the monthly debt payment. This will give you the Cash Flow you earn each and every month. If this number is negative, you may have to re-think your deal. If this number is positive, congratulations! You have positive cash flowing deal!
