Important disclosures. This calculator is for general educational purposes and provides a mathematical payment comparison only. It is not financial, legal, tax, accounting, lending, or investment advice, and it is not an offer, solicitation, commitment to lend, loan approval, appraisal, valuation, or prediction of future results.
Calculations assume the same principal balance, monthly payments, a fixed nominal annual rate divided by 12, and the selected amortization period. The equivalent rate is designed only to match the displayed monthly principal-and-interest payment. It does not mean the loans have the same APR, total interest, total cost, payoff balance, equity buildup, balloon risk, or future payment after an interest-only period. Interest-only payments generally do not reduce principal.
The DSCR comparison uses the entered nominal rates and amortization period to estimate principal-and-interest payments. It does not determine eligibility or account for differences in underwriting, down payment, recourse, prepayment terms, loan structure, or property and borrower requirements.
The deal analysis uses editable assumptions and simplified estimates. Annual insurance initially defaults to 1% of ARV and refinance closing costs initially default to 2% of ARV; both are editable and should be replaced with property- and loan-specific figures. Hard-money financing is limited to the lesser of the entered purchase-and-repair advances or maximum loan-to-ARV; repair funds may be advanced through draws rather than at closing. Refinance proceeds, cash returned, equity capture, total out of pocket, and cash-on-cash return are projections—not guaranteed proceeds, value, qualification, or performance.
When the interest-only refinance option is selected, monthly cash flow uses an interest-only payment that does not reduce principal. The displayed payment-equivalent amortized rate is a mathematical comparison only—not an available rate, APR, or indication that the two loan structures have the same balance, term, total interest, or risk.
Unless entered under miscellaneous, results exclude title and escrow charges, lender fees beyond displayed points or closing-cost estimates, draw fees, inspections, reserves, maintenance, vacancy, utilities, property management, leasing costs, mortgage insurance, servicing charges, prepayment penalties, rate changes, balloon payments, income taxes, and other loan or property costs. Property taxes and insurance use the annual amounts entered and may change after purchase. Results are estimates, may be affected by rounding or incorrect inputs, and are provided without warranties. Verify all figures, assumptions, valuations, written loan terms, and property expenses with qualified professionals before making a financial decision. You are responsible for your use of the calculator and resulting decisions; to the extent permitted by law, the site owner is not liable for losses arising from reliance on these estimates.
