This is a small site. One person writes the guide articles, one person owns the calculators and keeps them running. Both are named below, along with a link to how the numbers actually get produced.
Jessica Martinez
Contributing Writer, Business & Finance
Jessica writes the guide articles on this site: the cap rate explainer, the cap-rate-versus-cash-on-cash comparison, the screening walkthrough for a first look at a listing, and the full analysis guide that ties the four calculators together. Her focus stays on the quick check a landlord actually runs before committing an afternoon to a spreadsheet, with a worked number attached rather than a rule of thumb left unexplained. She revisits a guide when a rate range, a market benchmark, or a worked example needs a refresh, not on a fixed calendar.
Chris Terry
Owner
Chris owns RentalPropertyCalc along with a small group of other independent calculator sites. He built and maintains the four calculators on this domain, checks that each formula still lines up with current lending and tax practice, and reads every message that arrives through the contact page himself. Chris does not carry a byline on the guide articles; his role here is upkeep and accountability, not writing.
