The requirements from a property calculation solution differ substantially based on whether the solution is required for measuring the cash flow and investment return of a primary residence or a buy to let property.
Buy to Let Property Investors
Regardless of whether the property investor is an experienced property investor or a novice investor who is acquiring his or her first buy to let property, the benefits of using a comprehensive residential property calculation solution are the same:

return

an affordable price range, monthly bond repayment obligations and sensitivities around changes in bond
variables (like interest rates)
- The ability to compile an accurate residential property investment return forecast
- The ability to measure the actual property investment return against the initial
investment return forecast
- The functionality to generate reports for income tax purposes

purposes
- The functionality to keep accurate record of all capital costs for capital gains
tax purposes

- An enhanced understanding of the variables that affect property transactions
- The ability to perform comprehensive bond calculations in order to determine an
affordable price range, monthly bond repayment obligations and sensitivities around changes in bond
variables (like interest rates)
