핵심 아키텍처 및 수학 공식
Cap Rate = ( Net Operating Income / Current Market Value ) × 100
Where Net Operating Income (NOI) equals Total Annual Gross Rental Income minus Total Annual Operating Expenses (excluding debt service, depreciation, and capital expenditures).
모범 사례 및 필수 지침
- Exclude Mortgage Payments from NOI: Cap rate measures the raw yield of the asset itself, independent of the investor's financing structure. Never include mortgage principal or interest in your expense calculations.
- Account for Vacancy Allowances: Always deduct a 5 percent to 10 percent realistic vacancy rate from your gross potential rent to calculate the true effective gross income.
- Compare Local Market Averages: A higher cap rate implies higher yield but usually correlates with higher risk or lower asset class neighborhoods. Always benchmark against similar local properties.
