Frequently asked questions
What is a good cap rate?
Cap rate = annual NOI ÷ price. Many investors target 5–10%, but it varies by market and risk — higher cap rates often mean higher risk.
What counts as expenses?
Property tax, insurance, maintenance, management, and vacancy — but not the mortgage (cap rate is unlevered). Include the mortgage for cash-on-cash return.
