But what is your net profit/equity number? Mine isnt as good as id like. Rents aren't going up as fast as equity appreciation. --98.255.xx.xx

Ray-n-Pa, that seems unnecessarily complex. I do the following.

Gross income (expenses) = net income.

Net income = my retirement income :) --76.35.xxx.xx

Sorry Rick I don't right the reports.

The numbers that jump out:

Cost of sales in our industry means the percentage that you pay monthly to the bank for principle......this says 23.58% which seems rather low. Another 6.3% in interest on that principle amount.

The net profit - what you make after the bills get paid and depreciation is factored in is 2.94%

Repairs are just over 5%
