Interpretation

How Rental Income Projection works

The Rental Income Projector forecasts net rental income over multiple years using annual rent-growth and expense-growth rates. It does not model vacancy, mortgage payments, property taxes, or capital appreciation — fold those into your annual expenses, or use the Rental Analyzer for full underwriting.

Example

Key features

A realistic scenario showing how the calculation guides a practical decision.

Formula

Year 1 Net = (Monthly Rent × 12) − Annual Expenses. Rent and expenses then grow each year by their entered rates. No vacancy or mortgage is assumed — add them as expenses.

  • Multi-year rental income projections (up to 50 years)
  • Annual rent increases and expense growth
  • Net income and cumulative income per year
  • Simple model — no vacancy, mortgage, or equity assumed

Watch out

Common mistakes

  • Forgetting that vacancy, management fees, repairs, property tax, and mortgage payments are not modeled here — add them to annual expenses or your net income is overstated.
  • Using rent growth above market inflation (2-3%) without evidence; optimistic assumptions lead to disappointing real-world returns.
