The Rent Calculator Ng Tao estimates rental prices in the Philippines by averaging comparable rents adjusted for property features. It provides a realistic assessment of rental values based on local market data.
The calculator uses the following formula:
Where:
Explanation: The equation calculates the average of three comparable rents, then adjusts for unique property features.
Details: Accurate rent estimation is crucial for both landlords (to price competitively) and tenants (to avoid overpaying). It helps establish fair market value.
Tips: Enter three comparable rents in PHP, and any feature adjustments as a percentage (-10% to +10% typical). All values must be valid positive numbers.
Q1: Where can I find comparable rents?
A: Check local classifieds, real estate websites, or ask property agents for recent rental prices in your target area.
Q2: What features should I adjust for?
A: Consider adjustments for amenities (pool, gym), condition (new vs old), location (near transport), and size differences.
Q3: How many comparables should I use?
A: Three is the minimum, but using more (5-7) will give a more accurate estimate if available.
Q4: Does this work for all Philippine cities?
A: Yes, but ensure comparables are from the same city/neighborhood as rental markets vary greatly by location.
Q5: How often should I re-estimate?
A: Rental markets change, so re-estimate every 6-12 months or when significant market changes occur.
