Last updated July 2026. These terms cover the four calculators, the guide articles and the metrics reference page, everything on rentalpropertycalc.com.
Opening any calculator on this site, reading a guide, or submitting the contact form means these terms apply to you. If you plan to build a business process around a number this site produces, read the liability section below before you do.
The rental property calculator, the cap rate calculator, the cash-on-cash calculator and the 1% rule calculator each run a published formula against whatever you type in. A purchase price or rent figure that is off by even a small margin changes the output more than the formula itself ever could. Treat every result as a screening estimate, not a number a lender or appraiser would sign off on.
The calculators, the metrics reference and every article on this domain are provided as they stand. There is no guarantee that a formula matches what your specific county, insurer or lender uses, and no promise that the site stays available or error-free at any given moment.
Neither this site nor Chris Terry, who operates it, is responsible for a purchase, a financing decision, or a loss you attribute to a number one of these calculators produced. If a cap rate, cash-on-cash figure, or 1% rule result factors into an actual offer, confirm it independently with a licensed real estate, tax or financial professional first.
A handful of outbound links on this site, mostly in article footers, are affiliate links that can pay a small commission if you click through. That arrangement never changes which formula or figure gets described on a given page.
These terms get updated when the calculators, the guide lineup, or applicable law changes enough to require it. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the version posted here.
