About GRMCalculator.com

GRMCalculator.com is a free calculator and a set of guides for investors screening rental property by its gross rent. It exists because most GRM calculators online stop at the multiplier. This one shows the rent-to-price ratio and gross yield beside it, the cap rate the multiplier implies under stated expense assumptions, and the price or rent it would take to hit your target, with the math spelled out.

Part of a family of five calculators

GRMCalculator.com is one of five free rental property calculators built by the same people on the same calculation engine. Each covers one metric in depth and links to the others where the metrics meet:

• DSCR Loan Calculator: does the rent cover the payment?
• Cash on Cash Return Calculator: yield on the cash you put in
• Cap Rate Calculator: noi, cap rate and value
• BRRRR Calculator: buy, rehab, rent, refinance

Independence

The site is not owned by a lender or broker and does not sell leads. If that ever changes, it will be disclosed on this page and on any page where it applies.

How the numbers are produced

Every figure on the site comes from one open calculation engine. The formulas, assumptions and their limits are documented on the methodology page. Where a page states typical expense ratios or market multipliers, those are ranges commonly observed, not a guarantee of what any property or market will do.

Not advice

The calculator and guides are educational. They are not investment, financial, legal or tax advice. Returns depend on inputs and assumptions you control. Verify rents, taxes, insurance and expenses for the specific property before relying on any figure here.
