How to Use These Calculators Together
Each calculator addresses a different question, but they work together to form a complete analysis:
- Start with NOI. Calculate net operating income to establish the property's income baseline.
- Apply the cap rate. Divide NOI by the cap rate to estimate property value, or divide by the asking price to see the yield.
- Size the debt. Use the DSCR calculator to determine the maximum loan amount that keeps DSCR above lender minimums. Compare loan structures to find the best terms.
- Evaluate your return. Calculate cash-on-cash return to see annual equity yield, then model full deal returns with IRR and equity multiple for the total picture.
MotionCRE tracks all of these metrics automatically across your deal pipeline, so you can compare opportunities without rebuilding the analysis from scratch each time.
