Rent To Value Formula
The following formula is used to calculate a rent to value ratio.
RTV = MR / P *100
- Where RTV is the rent to value ratio (%)
- MR is the expected monthly rent
- P is the purchase price of the home or building
To calculate a rent to value ratio, divide the monthly rent by the purchase price of the home, then multiply by 100.
