Metrics
After-Tax Cash Flow
Pre-tax cash flow adjusted by a taxpayer-specific estimate of income taxes attributable to the rental. TrueCap does not currently expose an after-tax cash-flow module.
Why After-Tax Cash Flow matters
Tax treatment can shift an investor's realized result in either direction, but eligibility and timing depend on facts that a general rental screen cannot determine. Use a qualified professional and taxpayer-specific model.
How to check After-Tax Cash Flow before you rely on it
Start from the pre-tax cash flow you have already verified, then have a tax professional model the income tax attributable to the property using your return, not a generic rate. Ask specifically whether depreciation and any loss are usable this year. Keep the pre-tax number as the decision number until that answer is in writing.

Where After-Tax Cash Flow shows up in TrueCap
The analyzer computes this metric on every run from the assumptions you see and can edit, shows it in the results view beside cash flow after reserves and DSCR, and uses your targets for it in Buy Box fit and in the Offer Ceiling — the highest price that still meets those targets. It appears in the written decision memo and the PDF with the same value and the same inputs.
