About this calculator

Overview

The Capitalization Rate (Cap Rate) measures the annual rate of return on a rental property based on the income the property is expected to generate.

💡

Pro Tips

High Cap Rate: Often implies higher potential return, but may come with higher risk or a less desirable location.
Low Cap Rate: Often implies lower risk, higher property value stability, and potentially better location (lower yields).
NOI calculations exclude mortgage payments (principal & interest). Cash flow includes debt service.
