![]() Investors often use cap rate analysis in determining offer amount on income property. ![]() Lets look at another scenario where we are told a building is selling for $1,000,000 and at a 8 CAP, here is how we would quickly see how much income is being generated. If, for example, we know the Net Operating Income (NOI) is $100,000 and we want a 10 CAP you would take the top of the pyramid (I) and divide it by the R (CAP). The key elements in this formula are the stabilized NOI (I) and the capitalization rate (R) and the value (V). It is the income capitalization method real estate managers or appraisers use. It may help to think of the IRV formula in the form of a triangle. In other words, it relies on a single year’s stabilized NOI to estimate the value of a property. Stabilized NOI(I) is the true earning potential of the property in the absence of undue or extraordinary circumstances albeit its yearly history which is repetitive. Income capitalizationis the market valuation of a property based upon a one-year projection of income. Therefore, when you see income on this formula, we are talking about the net operating income, or, NOI which we will use the single letter I to designate. This rate of return assumes that the property was paid for with cash. Expenses would include taxes, insurance, management fees, homeowner’s insurance, common area utilities and any other expenses that is paid toward running this particular piece of real estate. The net operating income is the annual income minus all expenses. Often called a Cap Rate (Rate), it is the method for determining the attractiveness of the investment for the potential purchaser.įirst one needs to understand net operating income (NOI). The capitalization rate(R) is the rate of return used to estimate the property’s value based on that property’s net operating income. So I decided to simplify the meaning and amplify the importance. Every time I mention a capitalization rate to a group of learning based, future investors, I get this blank deer in the headlights’ look (not that I have stared many deer in the face).
