Frequently asked questions
- What is a good cap rate?
- Cap rate standards vary by market and property type. In primary markets (NYC, SF), cap rates of 3–5% are common. Secondary markets may see 6–8%. Higher cap rates signal higher return — but also higher risk.
- Does cap rate include the mortgage?
- No. Cap rate is a financing-independent metric. It uses Net Operating Income (NOI), which excludes debt service. This lets you compare properties regardless of how they are financed.
- What is the difference between cap rate and cash-on-cash return?
- Cap rate ignores financing; cash-on-cash return accounts for your actual mortgage payments. A property can have a low cap rate but high cash-on-cash return if financed favorably, and vice versa.
