Summary At The End of
Month 228
Let's summarize what your position looks like at the end of Month 228 (our last
Significant Event
Properties owned, net worth, cash flow and several other important, key metrics.
Properties Owned
The chart below shows the total number of Properties that you own up to and including this month, Month
228.
Net Worth
At the end of Month 228, your overall net worth for the entire
Scenario up to this point in time can be summarized by the following chart.
As you can see in the net worth summary above, your net worth for Month 228 is $3,142,607.18.
Rent and Cash Flow
By the end of Month 228 the total monthly rent you are now collecting from all the
Properties for this
Scenario is $40,342.72 per month. The following chart shows the total monthly cash flow from all the
Properties up to this month.
And, if you'd like to see how each individual Property is contributing to the total monthly rent, the following chart shows each of the 10
Properties owned up through this month.
Properties without rent (like the one you're living in) are obviously excluded.
Here is how much each of the Properties you are collecting rent on is contributing in net cash flow after expenses (but not including cash flow from depreciation).
Account Balances
If we sum up the Account balances for all the
Accounts each month we can see the total balance for each month up through this month, Month
228. Our total
Account balance this month is $464,154.54 This is after all the income and expenses for the month.
The following chart shows how the total Account balance of $464,154.54 for all your
Accounts is distributed over your 2
Accounts in
Month 228.
Total Equity
At this point, you have over a million dollars in equity that you can access in the Properties. In fact, in
Month 228 you have $2,678,452.64 in equity.
The following is a chart showing your total equity as it has built up over time up through and including Month 228.
Cash Flow
Your total cash flow for all Properties combined (excluding any
Properties you are currently living in and not collecting rent on) is $9,117.23 per month in
Month 228. This does include an estimate of cash flow from the tax benefit of depreciation. You can see a summary chart of this below.
Paychecks
The following chart shows how much gross you're bringing home from paychecks based on any Rules that are for paychecks in the
Scenario.
Paychecks Adjusted For Inflation
While it may look like your gross paycheck is increasing rapidly over the last 10 years, if we adjust for inflation, you see a very different picture. The chart below shows us the gross monthly paycheck after we adjust it back to today's dollars and remove inflation.
Once we take into account the taxes you're paying on your gross paychecks, you're left over with your net from paychecks. That is shown in the chart below. For this month, it is $8,621.77.
Not counting the cost of the Property you are living in and not collecting rent on, you have $3,725.78 in personal expenses.
If we include the cost of the Property that you are living in, your personal expenses jump up to $7,290.86 in
Month 228.
The difference between your net personal income after taxes and your personal expenses not counting the cost of the Property that you're living in is the amount of money that you can save from your paychecks each month. We will show you your true savings when we include the cost of the
Property you are occupying in a moment. For now, realize that in
Month 228, you are able to save $4,895.99 from your paychecks after all your personal expenses (not counting the unrented
Property you are living in).
Mortgages Are Paid In Arrears
I want to point out something important to you about how mortgage payments work.
When you buy a new Property, you do not have a mortgage payment due the first month that you own the
Property. For example, if you bought a
Property on January 1st, then your first mortgage payment on that
Property would not be due until February 1st. That is because a mortgage is paid in arrears... you need to have the interest on your loan accumulate for a month so that you can make a payment of that interest amount (and any principal).
That means the first month you own a Property, you get a little boost to your savings.
This does mean though that if you decide to sell the Property you will have a mortgage payment for the month you sell it. So, to continue our example from above, if you sold the property on December 1st, you'd still need to make your December 1st payment even though you won't be living in your
Property for that month. That's because the December 1st payment is really covering the interest you accrued in November.
The $4,895.99 you were able to save from your paychecks in Month 228 is not the full picture. It fails to take into account your personal housing expense. The chart below shows that you were able to save $1,330.91 in total but this time we are including the cost of your personal housing.
Minimum Gross Income Required
The Real Estate Financial Planner™ software does calculations to determine what it believes you would need to be earning in gross income from all sources between you and your spouse (if you're buying together on the loan) to be able to qualify for the loans on Properties.
The software assumes you have no other debt besides your mortgages. If you have car debt, student loan debt, credit card debt or any other debts at all, it will increase this number. While it is not 100% accurate, a rule of thumb to estimate how much more you'll need to earn if you have additional debts is to double the monthly payment. For example, if your car payment is $300 per month, you'd need to add about $600 more per month in income to still be able to qualify carrying that additional debt.
Of course, this calculation is really an estimate and you should discuss the actual requirement with your lender for your specific situation.
The following chart shows you the estimated minimum gross monthly income required to be able to qualify for the current loans you have in the Scenario. For
Month 228, you will need to be earning, at a minimum, $5,851.25 per month gross (before taxes) between you and your spouse.
Your income from your rental Properties can count toward this as well.
