Rent VS. Sell Calculator
Should You Rent Out or Sell Your Property?
Not sure if you should rent or sell your property? Use our calculator to compare both options side by side. Just enter your property details and financial information to see a clear estimate of your potential earnings through each scenario.
Note:
The "Years to Hold" field lets you project how long you plan to keep the property before selling. This helps estimate the year of sale and includes expected selling expenses in that year. These costs may cover things like real estate commissions, capital gains tax, and depreciation recapture — so don’t be surprised by a one-time spike in expenses if you choose to sell.
