Common questions

What is considered a good return for a rental property?

The answer to this question can vary greatly depending on the rental property in question, the location, and the current market conditions. It is important to keep in mind that there are many factors that can influence the return on a rental property, so it is always best to consult with a local real estate agent or property manager to get a more accurate estimate.

How do I use this calculator?

This rental property earnings calculator is used to calculate the potential net operating income for a PadSplit property and compare it to the performance of the property as a single family home.

1. Provide a neighborhood or zip code where you are evaluating a property
2. Provide the current bedroom count and the number of bedrooms you think you could add by converting unused space
3. Estimate the current rent for the property as a SFH
4. Estimate the purchase price of the property
5. View your earnings comparison to see if PadSplit is a good fit for your property

What is the ROI for the rental property?

ROI will depend on the financing arrangements for your investment. Both Net Operating Income and Unlevered Return on Cost are not dependent on the terms of your down payment or debt service terms. Potential ROI can be calculated using the estimated Net Operating Income and an ROI calculator provided by a lender.

What are the assumed values in the calculation?

There are a number of values that are based on assumptions from past PadSplit and Single Family Home investments. All of these values can be modified to better match your estimates or current values.
