All Topics / Help Needed! / Property Investment Calculators
Hi All,
I’m looking for some recommendations on what property investment calculator I should buy? I’m just about to try the trail version of Property Investment Calculator, what else should I look at please?
I have one IP and looking to do some “what if” analysis. Although I’m not limited to just this functionally, I’m keen to explore other functions and tools.
Regards,
Ray
Hi Ray,
and welcome aboard !! :D Sorry, I can’t help much with other calculators. I did have a look at Ian Somers’ PIA (he used to have a trial version on the Somersoft website) but I found I got much more from using Excel and building my own calculators.That did two things for me – one, I was learning Excel for myself at that time, and as I found each new function, I would incorporate it into new s’sheets. And two, the figures I calculated were geared to MY situation and the results gave me the confidence to “dip my toe in the water” about 15 years ago. It also allowed future planning for goal setting.
Maybe others can come up with other options for you. Anyway, welcome – and do ask any other questions that might strike you from time to time.

Here’s a little tool I created a while back – I haven’t checked it in a while but should still be helpful today http://passgo.com.au/investment-property-analysis-tool.html

Property Investment Calculator has a what-if function but I don’t think PIA does.
If you have analytical/excel skills then definitely create your own spreadsheet. It’s quite easy and you can implement whatever features you need.
But if you’re not so good with numbers and excel then either Property Investment Calculator or PIA will do the job.
All the best
