CapMetric exists because too many investment decisions are made with inadequate tools. We built the calculators we needed and made them available to every investor, free of charge.
CapMetric was founded after a straightforward observation: the tools available to individual property investors were either too simplistic to model real scenarios or locked behind expensive software subscriptions. Neither served the market well.
We built the rental yield and mortgage calculators to handle the specific inputs that matter — vacancy rate, operating expenses, LVR, cashflow after debt service — with transparent methodology and no registration barriers.
Since launch, 4,217 calculations have been run through our tools by investors across residential, commercial, and mixed-use markets. We continue to expand the toolset based on the scenarios investors tell us they are modelling.
Every calculation uses standard financial formulae with explicit inputs. We do not round figures or hide assumptions.
All tools are permanently free with no registration, no trial periods, and no data collection beyond standard analytics.
We document how each metric is computed so investors can validate results and understand their own models.
Tools are built around decisions investors actually make — acquisition analysis, loan structuring, and cashflow planning.
