The Default Cash Account is a special
Account in the Real Estate Financial Planner™ software.
Some fun facts:
- It can never be deleted. So, it always counts as one of your
on your plan. This is true even though many people hope to never use it. More on that in a bit.Accounts
- It is automatically included with every
Scenario you create and run.
- It always earns a return of 0%.
- It is the only
Account that can have a negative balance.
- You can use it just like any other
Account to add or subtract money from.
But, why?
The Default Cash Account was designed to be the
Account the system goes to when you run out of money in another
Account.
Whenever any other
Account in the Real Estate Financial Planner™ software would go negative, it goes to $0 and we make the
Default Cash Account go negative.


This allows you to easily see how much money from outside the software that you’d need to add to make your model successful.
