Example 1
- area 55
- rate 12
660
What rent from 55 area at 12 per unit? → 660 per month (no extras).
Monthly Rent Calculator
Enter the area and the monthly unit rate. The calculator multiplies the header area unit (m² or ft²) by the rate. At 55 and 12 the result is 660. At 40 and 15: 600. At 70 and 10: 700. That is landlord rent from the numbers you enter — not rental yield.
Result
Enter area and rate.
Not rental yield and not a lease. The calculator multiplies area by the rate. Unit purchase price is on the price per square foot calculator.
How it works
Area55
Rate12
Rent660
The rent calculator multiplies area by the monthly unit rate. At 55 and 12 the result is 660. At 40 and 15 it is 600. At 70 and 10 it is 700.
Area is the first factor. Unit rate is the second. With metric units the result is labeled m²; with US units it is labeled ft². The multiplication formula stays the same. The currency in the header only labels the result — it does not convert exchange rates.
Optional HOA/admin fees multiply by area. Utilities add as a monthly amount. At 55, rate 12, admin 12, and utilities 350 the total monthly cost is 1,670: rent 660, admin 660, and utilities 350.
This is not a lease and not rental yield. The related price-per-unit calculator divides purchase price by area. Here this page computes monthly landlord rent from area and rate.
Enter 55 and 12, then Calculate. A comma in 12.5 works the same as a period. An empty area or empty rate does not show a primary result. When admin and utilities are filled in, the result also shows the total monthly cost.
Formula
monthly rent = area × unit rate
When you enter options: total monthly cost = rent + area × admin rate + utilities.
This is simply area × rent rate. At 55 and 12: 55 × 12 = 660 per month. The calculator does not pull lease terms.
How to use
- Enter the area, for example 55.
- Enter the monthly rate, for example 12.
- Click Calculate. The result is 660.
- 40 and 15 give 600. 70 and 10 give 700.
- Optionally enter admin fees and utilities to see the total monthly cost.
Area, rate, rent
monthly rent = area × unit rate. At 55 and 12 the result is 660.
- area
- First factor. 55 × 12 is 660. 40 × 15 is 600.
- rate
- Monthly price per unit. 10 at 70 gives 700. Not an HOA schedule.
- rent
- Product to the landlord. Not a lease and not yield.
- total cost
- When you enter options: rent + admin + utilities. At admin 12 and utilities 350 on top of 660 the total is 1,670.

Is this a free monthly rent calculator?
Yes. Enter area and unit rate and you see monthly rent at once. No account required.
When do admin fees and utilities enter the result?

What is the total monthly cost at 55 area, rate 12, admin 12, and utilities 350?
1,670 per month. Landlord rent is 660, admin is 55 × 12 = 660, and utilities are 350.
How do I estimate a security deposit here?
Enter a months multiplier in the optional fields. At landlord rent 660 and a multiplier of 1 the deposit is 660. That is an estimate from landlord rent, not a lease clause.
How do I compare two rental listings?
Open “Compare a second rental listing”. With A = 55 × 12 (660) and B = 40 × 15 (600) the gap B − A is −60, so B is cheaper on landlord rent alone.
Is the result a lease or rental yield?
No. The result comes only from the numbers you enter. The calculator does not pull lease terms and does not compute investment return or a deposit.
Is the result for a year?
No. The primary result is monthly. With empty options the calculator also shows twelve months as a hint, without a separate multiply step from you.
Does the header currency convert exchange rates?
No. The currency label only names the result. The product stays with the numbers you enter.
Do US units change the formula?
No. With US units the result is labeled ft², and the formula stays the same. 55 times 12 stays 660; only the unit label changes.
Does a decimal in the rate field work?
Yes. A comma and a period are the same fraction. 55 and 12.5 give a different rent than 12.
How is this different from price per unit?
That page divides purchase price by area. Here area multiplies by a monthly rent rate.
What happens with an empty area or rate?
The calculator does not show a primary result until both area and rate are greater than zero.
Where do I estimate a mortgage payment?
On the mortgage instalment calculator. This page stays monthly rent from area and rate.
How do I get rent per square foot from a monthly rent?
This page multiplies area by a unit rate to get monthly landlord rent. For the reverse (monthly rent ÷ area), divide the listing rent by square footage yourself — this tool does not invert that way.
