How this is calculated. All-in cost = purchase + rehab + purchase closing costs + holding costs. The refinance loan is ARV × LTV; net cash returned subtracts refi closing costs. Cash left in the deal is what you cannot pull back out — a textbook BRRRR aims for zero or negative, but a modest amount left in at a strong cash-on-cash return is still a good outcome. Operating expenses apply vacancy, management, maintenance and CapEx as percentages of gross rent, plus taxes, insurance and HOA. DSCR is annual NOI divided by annual debt service; most lenders want 1.20 or better. Figures are estimates for planning only — actual results depend on appraisal, lender terms, rehab overruns and local rents.
