Calculating Your Net Rental Income

Our property management firm calculates your net rental income using the following formula:

Net Rental Income = [Rent Collected * (100 – management fee %)] – Rental Expenses

If rent collected is $2700 on 2 bedroom furnished apartment and our management fee is 16% and rental expense is all utilities $300, then Net Rental Income = ($2700 * .84) – 300 = $1968 is the amount of rent you are paid.
