You'd make about $586 a month, and it holds up.
The rent is our own estimate — worth checking against two or three real local lettings. An empty month costs you 2 months of it, so there is room for things to go wrong.

Why it works
Monthly profit +$586/mo from completion — the no.1 reason to invest
This is the money left after the mortgage, the running costs and tax — not the rent.It assumes the rent we modelled and the empty weeks we assumed. Change either and it moves. Try your own numbers →
Stress Rent-covers-mortgage check PASS at 6.5% rate stress — lender-friendly
Lenders test the rent against a stressed rate, not the one you are quoted. This clears it.The cover level is each lender’s own policy, not law — treat it as the shape of the test. See the lender's view →
Why to be cautious
No rent comparables — estimate is a rule-of-thumb fallback, not market data. Verify the rent locally before offering.
Property research tool — not a regulated financial service. Numbers are point-in-time estimates; how we decide →
