Property, analysed
Is it carrying you, or are you carrying it?
Most people know what their property is worth. Far fewer know what it costs them each week, or what it will be doing in ten years.
How it works
- Usable equity — What you could actually access: value at 80% LVR, less the debt against it.
- Itemised cash-flow — Rent in; loan, rates, insurance, management and maintenance out. The true weekly out-of-pocket, and what it is after tax.
- Each property in one place — Its loans and splits, usable equity and cash-flow together on one card, rather than spread across screens.
- Stress test and development scenarios — See what a rate rise, a fall in rent or a few empty weeks does to your weekly cash-flow, before and after tax. Or model a renovation, rebuild or subdivision on the property it would happen to.
- A summary for your broker — Every property with its value, each loan with its rate, type and expiry dates, and the LVR and usable equity. Download it as a spreadsheet or save it as a PDF for your mortgage broker.
- Yield and LVR — Gross yield and loan-to-value per property and across the whole portfolio.
- A forecast, not a snapshot — Year by year to your Freedom Year: where each property’s value, debt and cash-flow are heading.
- Offsets and linked loans — Loans link to the property they are secured against, and offset balances count where they should.
Common questions
What is usable equity?
Usable equity is the portion of your property equity a lender would typically let you access: commonly 80% of the property’s value less the debt secured against it. It is the number that decides whether a deposit for the next purchase already exists.
Does Compound show negative gearing?
Compound shows the actual cash position — rent received against every holding cost, giving the weekly amount the property costs or pays you. It is a factual cash-flow summary of your own figures, not tax advice.
Can I track properties I live in as well as investments?
Yes. Your home, investment properties and any property held through a trust, company or SMSF can all be tracked, with the analysis applied to the ones you hold as investments.

Compound allows me track bank accounts, shares and property all in the one app. I can view the year I become financially independent but also use their calculators and budgeting tools to run scenarios and watch how that freedom year is impacted. One of my favourite features is that my wifes account and my account can be linked so our financial goals are visualised and aligned.
I’ve been using Compound for a while now and it’s helped me consolidate everything into a single portal. It’s easy to use, gives me all the important info at a glance and helped us make more informed financial decisions
What a fantastic and innovative app this is. It has helped me combine all my finances in one place rather than having to check 5-10 individual apps. Keep the new features coming Compound!
Could not recommend this app enough! It has allowed me to sit down and really look at my finances. I now have a clear goal and know exactly what to do to get there. Well done to the team at Compound for creating such an innovative product.
Such a great app - combines all my assets in one place and models when I can stop work. It is so accurate, customer service is great, app is slick and works well. Data secure and never had an issue. Highly recommend
