There are several other variables involved that ultimately generate these numbers, such as interest borrowed, financing details, facility maintenance, renovations, repairs, and similar expenditures. <em>Investopedia.com<\/em> maintains that in most cases, lower investment costs tend to render higher ROI\u2019s, however, financing terms can also play a role in improving one\u2019s return on investment. For this reason, it is vital that you do your due diligence as a commercial proprietor or real estate developer and find the best possible interest rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><strong>ROI Calculation Approaches<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">There are two best practices for calculating ROI. The first approach is referred to as the <em>cost method<\/em>. The second approach is referred to the <em>out-of-pocket method<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25ba <strong>COST METHOD \u2013<\/strong> Using this method, you would divide your equity by the total investment cost, including procurement, renovations, and maintenance. For instance, if you purchase a property for $200,000, then spend an additional $100,000 on renovations, and as a result your investment properties value increases to $400,000, your equity position as an investor would be $100,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>400,000 \u2013 (200,000 + 100,000) = $100,000<\/strong><br>ROI would be .33%, which you get by dividing $100,000 by $300,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25ba <strong>OUT-OF-POCKET METHOD \u2013<\/strong> Most real estate developers use the out-of-pocket method to calculate ROI. If you use a loan to pay for the down payment of your investment property, it can render higher return on investment results under this cost approach. Using the same example as above, here is how ROI would look with a $40,000 out-of-pocket loan for a down payment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>$40,000 Loan + $100,000 Renovation = $140,000<br>$400,000 &#8211; $140,000 = $260,000 Investor Equity<\/strong><br>ROI would be .65%, which is more than double the cost method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a commercial real estate developer or proprietor, you will mainly focus on the internal rate of return (IRR) for your property, which is basically your property\u2019s cash flow and equity put together.
