Mortgage affordability and property value calculators answer the two questions every buyer needs: "Can I afford this?" and "Is the asking price fair?"
Rental yield and cash flow calculators evaluate investment properties. Capital gains calculator ensures you understand the tax bill before selling.
Commission calculator shows agent fee impact on net proceeds. Capital gains estimate helps you plan the tax implications of your sale.
Home value is best estimated through: (1) Comparable sales (comps) — recent sales of similar homes within 0.5 miles, (2) Cost approach — land value + replacement cost minus depreciation, (3) Income approach for rentals — Net Operating Income ÷ Cap Rate. Automated tools like Zillow have 2-8% median error. Our property value calculator applies the sales comparison method using your inputs.
Gross rental yield of 5-8% is considered good in most US and UK markets. Net yield (after expenses) of 3-5% is typical for well-maintained properties. High yield markets (Detroit, Memphis, Cleveland) can reach 8-12% gross but carry higher vacancy and maintenance risks. Use our rental yield calculator to see both gross and net yield with expense inputs.
The general rule: housing costs should not exceed 28% of gross monthly income (front-end ratio), and total debt should not exceed 36-43% of gross income (back-end ratio). On $80,000/year income, that means housing up to $1,867/month. Our mortgage affordability calculator factors in your income, debts, down payment, interest rate, and property taxes.
Primary residence gains are excluded up to $250,000 (single filers) or $500,000 (married) if owned and lived in for 2 of the last 5 years. Gains above these thresholds, or from investment properties, are taxed at 0%, 15%, or 20% (long-term rates for assets held 1+ year) based on income level. Short-term gains (under 1 year) are taxed as ordinary income (up to 37%).
