Interpretation
How Property Comparison works
The Property Comparator is an all-cash screening worksheet. It compares purchase price, rental-income assumptions, operating expenses, and a simple holding-period scenario; it does not calculate mortgage payments, debt service, selling costs, or tax outcomes.
Example
Key features

Formula

- Side-by-side comparison of 2 properties
- ROI, cap rate, cash-on-cash and price-to-rent for each
- All-cash purchase assumption — no mortgage or debt service
- Visual scoring to highlight the best investment
Watch out
Common mistakes
- Look beyond the purchase price \u2014 a cheaper property with higher maintenance costs or lower rental potential may underperform a more expensive one. Always compare on a per-dollar-invested (ROI) basis.
