Right now
You have a short clock on an offer or renewal, and property ROI still needs real numbers. Real Estate ROI is the full reference; right now add cash to close, monthly PITI, and at least one month of vacancy to your sheet.
Sanity check
Listing sites often show P&I only, not the full property ROI picture. Add taxes and insurance before you decide if the payment fits.
Under pressure
Offer expires in 48 hours: compute payment at the quoted rate and again at rate +1%. If +1% fails your budget, adjust price, down payment, or reserves before you drop contingencies.
