What the Property Return on Equity Calculator is for
Measure current annual property cash flow against current owner equity.
It keeps income, operating costs, financing, invested cash, value, timing, and exit assumptions explicit so you can reproduce the result and compare genuinely consistent scenarios.
Calculation structure
Keep income, costs, and value in the right period
Current equity = property value − secured debt; return on equity = annual cash flow ÷ current equity × 100%.
