How the Math Works
Rental surplus reduces the P&I burden on the new loan — we solve for the rate that produces the lower payment.

Qualifying Income Note
Agency guidelines typically credit 75% of market rent ($0) against the departing PITI for DTI. That produces a qualifying contribution of $0/mo. The cash-flow math above uses real-world expenses, which is what the borrower actually feels in their checking account.
Why Deferred Maintenance Matters
A pristine 5-year-old build with HOA-handled exterior carries a different reserve than a 1970s home with an original roof. Toggle the condition preset to show clients an honest picture — landlord reality, not a brochure.
Educational illustration only. This tool is provided for general educational purposes and does not constitute a loan approval, rate quote, commitment to lend, or offer of credit. Actual qualifying income from a departing residence is subject to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA, or USDA guidelines and full underwriting review. Effective rate shown is a conceptual illustration of how rental cash flow may offset housing expense — it is not an APR, interest rate, or note rate. All loan terms, including interest rate and APR, are subject to credit approval, market conditions, and program eligibility. Equal Housing Opportunity.
