NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) is one metric used to determine the profitability of a real estate investment. Net operating income is the income generated after accounting for operating expenses. Net operating income is essentially a measure of the cash flow for the property, and you can calculate it using the following formula: [net operating income = gross income – vacancy loss – operating expenses]. Thus, net operating income is equal to the gross income generated minus losses due to vacancy minus operating expenses.
CAP RATE, or capitalization rate, is the return rate for an investment property. The cap rate is a ratio of a property's annual net operating income relative to its market value, expressed as a percentage. It's used to evaluate the income generated relative to the property value and is a reasonably good measure for comparing the profit potential for different investment properties. Calculate the cap rate using the formula [cap rate = net operating income/property value × 100%]. The cap rate is equal to the net operating income divided by the market value, expressed as a percentage.
CASH-ON-CASH RETURN is another metric used to evaluate an investment property's rate of return and profitability. This metric evaluates whether a property can generate a positive cash flow and is worth the cash needed to invest. Cash-on-cash return is a cash flow ratio to the total cash invested in a property, expressed as a percentage. The cash-on-cash return is equal to the annual pre-tax cash flow divided by the total cash investment, expressed as a percentage. You can calculate it using this formula: [cash on cash return = annual pre-tax cash flow/total cash investment].
The GROSS RENT MULTIPLIER (GRM) is another metric used to determine a property's potential return on investment. The gross rent multiplier is a ratio of the property value or purchase price to its annual gross rental income. The gross rent multiplier is equal to the property's value divided by the gross income generated by the property. You can calculate the gross rent multiplier using the formula: [gross rent multiplier = property value/gross annual income].
