$

$

Annual NOI contribution

$39,400

Pet rent revenue

$38,400

One-time fee revenue

$7,000

How the math works

Rent revenue = pet units × rent × 12. One-time = 25% turnover × fee. NOI = revenue − damage.

80 × $40 × 12 = $38k rent + $7k one-time − $6k damage = $39k NOI.

How to Use

  1. Enter pet-owning units.
  2. Enter monthly pet rent.
  3. Enter pet fee one-time.
  4. Enter damage above baseline per unit.
  5. Read annual NOI.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fee structures?

Monthly pet rent: $25-75/pet. One-time fee: $250-500 (often non-refundable). Pet deposit: $200-500 (refundable). Multi-pet: sometimes doubled, sometimes capped at 2. Assistance animals: no fees (legal requirement).

Damage reality?

Average pet-owning unit: $50-150 additional damage vs non-pet unit. Rare extreme damage ($2k+). Most pets cause minimal damage. Net revenue: $600-900/yr/pet-unit after damage. Pet properties outperform no-pet on NOI.

Vacancy attraction?

Pet-friendly properties: 40-60% of renter base. Non-pet-friendly: 20-40%. Pet programs reduce vacancy, increase market pool, command rent premium. Opportunity cost of no-pet policy is substantial.

What documentation matters here?

Written leases, move-in/move-out inspections with photographs, ledger entries showing every payment and charge, served notices with proof of service, and contemporaneous emails or texts. Courts weigh written evidence heavily; informal understandings rarely stand. Institutional operators run a monthly file audit to catch gaps before they matter. Good paper trails recover most of what's owed.
