What the Arithmetic Includes

Collected rent = monthly rent × units × 12 × (1 − vacancy %). Management is charged on collected rent. Each unit has at most one new lease or one renewal per year; turnover chooses the mix. Leasing is a percentage of one month’s rent. Maintenance dollars appear on both sides; only the manager side adds the markup. Setup is first-year only.

Self-management adds a portfolio software bill and your stated time value. A negative difference means your modeled self-management cost is higher. Owner time with a manager, taxes, financing, insurance, rent growth and extra contract charges are excluded. No return forecast is implied.
