How the calculator works

How do I work out my real rental income?

Start with the annual rent, then subtract the rent lost while the property is empty, agent fees, repairs and compliance costs, and an allowance for arrears. That gives your income before mortgage interest and tax.

How much should I allow for void periods?

It depends on your area and property. A few weeks a year is a common planning assumption, but check local letting times with agents.
