As you recall from last month, there are 3 figures that go hand-in-hand when trying to determine a commercial/apartment property's value. They are; Net Operating Income (NOI), Cap Rate and Asking Price. If you know 2 of the figures you can always figure out the third.This month, we'll be talking about the Cap Rate of a property. More specifically, how the Cap Rate works in conjunction with the Net Operating Income (NOI). By the way, you can access last month’s article on NOI by visiting my web site at www.AnthonyChara.com (/). Let’s get started. First off, Cap Rate is short for Capitalization Rate. Try saying that 10 times fast. In short, Cap Rate is, “The process of converting anticipated future income into present value” according to the American Heritage Dictionary. It’s the return you expect to receive on an Apartment Complex before debt service. It's also the return you would receive on the property if you paid all cash for it and had no debt service or mortgage payments. text/html 2007-04-10T23:00:00+01:00 http://anthonychara.com http://anthonychara.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=13 There are 3 figures that go hand-in-hand when trying to determine a commercial/apartment property's value. They are Net Operating Income (NOI), Cap Rate and Asking Price. If you know 2 of the figures you can always figure out the third. This month, we'll be talking about the NOI of a property. More specifically, how NOI is calculated as it relates to an apartment building. I'm going to start with a simplified version of how to arrive at the NOI of a property and then expand each category. Basically, the formula is: Income - Expenses (other than debt service) = Net Operating Income.
