About Real Estate ROI Calculator

Property returns have two engines: capital appreciation and net rent. Including acquisition costs in the investment base is essential — stamp duty and registration can add close to a tenth of the price and are often left out.

Formula

Property ROI

ROI = [(value - invested) + net rent] / invested, invested = price + acquisition costs

Worked example

Frequently Asked Questions

Why include stamp duty?

It is unrecoverable cash spent to own the asset. Ignoring it flatters the return substantially.

Should the mortgage be included?

For return on equity, yes — use only your own cash as the base and deduct interest from the rent.
