Why Use Ohio Data?

Real estate investing is hyperlocal. National averages for property tax, insurance, and vacancy rates can be wildly misleading when underwriting a deal in Ohio. The OH effective property tax rate is 1.59%, which translates to $0/year on a median-priced Ohio home at $0. That single line item can be the difference between positive and negative cash flow.

Homeowners insurance in Ohio averages $1,200/year. Failing to account for OH-specific insurance costs is one of the most common mistakes new investors make when running numbers remotely. Ohio has below-average insurance costs.

The Ohio vacancy rate currently sits at 7%. Plugging in a generic 5% vacancy assumption when the actual market runs at or below that level will roughly match your projected income. This calculator pre-fills OH data so your analysis starts from reality, not assumptions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the data in this calculator specific to Ohio?
Yes. The vacancy rate (7%), property tax rate (1.59%), and insurance cost ($1,200/yr) are all pre-loaded with Ohio-specific data sourced from state agencies and market databases. You can override any value.
How often is the Ohio data updated?
We review and update state market data quarterly. The current dataset was last reviewed in 2026-09-01. Sources include Tax Foundation (taxfoundation.org), Ohio Department of Insurance, Federal Reserve FRED, and others.
Can I use custom numbers instead of the pre-filled defaults?
Absolutely. The pre-filled values are starting points based on OH averages. Every field is editable. For property-specific analysis, enter the actual numbers from your deal.
What monthly cash flow should I target in Ohio?
Most investors target $100-300/month per unit as a minimum. In Ohio, with property taxes at 1.59% and insurance at $1,200/yr, achieving positive cash flow requires careful analysis. Use this calculator to verify the numbers before making an offer.
What is cash-on-cash return?
Cash-on-Cash Return measures the annual pre-tax cash flow relative to the total cash invested (typically your down payment plus closing costs). A 8-12% cash-on-cash return is considered good for rental properties.
