The loan's payments cost 7.98% of the amount borrowed each year, more than the 6.69% cap rate, so borrowing lowers the cash return on your own money.

The property collects $29,640.00 of rent in year 1 and costs $9,571.20 to run, an NOI of $20,068.80 and a 6.69% cap rate. After $17,963.17 of mortgage payments you keep $175.47 a month, a cash-on-cash return of 2.51% on the $84,000.00 you invested. Selling after 10 years for $403,174.91 gives an IRR of 12.13% and a total profit of $152,341.18 before tax.

关于Rental property calculator (cap rate and cash flow)

Net operating income (NOI) is the rent you collect after vacancy, minus operating costs: property tax, insurance, HOA dues, maintenance, management and other running costs, but not the mortgage. The cap rate is NOI divided by the purchase price. Cash flow is NOI minus the year's mortgage payments, and the cash-on-cash return divides it by the cash you put in: down payment plus closing and repair costs.

With the defaults, a $300,000 property bought with 25% down at 7% and rented for $2,600 a month has a year-1 NOI of $20,068.80, a 6.69% cap rate and $175.47 a month of cash flow, a 2.51% cash-on-cash return on $84,000. Sold after 10 years at 3% yearly appreciation, it returns an IRR of 12.13%.

Rent, costs and value grow at the rates you set. Income tax, depreciation and capital-gains tax are left out, so every figure is before tax.

常见问题

How do you calculate cap rate?

Divide the year's net operating income by the property's price or value and multiply by 100. NOI is collected rent minus operating costs, before mortgage payments. A property earning $24,000 of NOI on a $300,000 price has an 8% cap rate. Because financing is left out, the cap rate compares properties regardless of how each is paid for; it is the direct-capitalization rate appraisers use in value = NOI ÷ rate.

What is the difference between cap rate and cash-on-cash return?

Cap rate ignores the loan; cash-on-cash return includes it. Cap rate = NOI ÷ price, and cash-on-cash = (NOI − mortgage payments) ÷ cash invested. With the defaults, NOI of $20,068.80 on $300,000 is a 6.69% cap rate, but after $17,963.17 of mortgage payments the $2,105.63 of cash flow is 2.51% of the $84,000 invested. Borrowing at a rate above the cap rate lowers the cash return.

What is net operating income on a rental property?

Rental income collected, after vacancy, minus the costs of running the property: property tax, insurance, HOA dues, repairs and maintenance, management and utilities you pay. Mortgage principal and interest, depreciation and income tax are not operating costs. On the defaults, $31,200 of scheduled rent less 5% vacancy is $29,640 collected; $9,571.20 of costs leaves an NOI of $20,068.80.

What does the debt service coverage ratio mean?

DSCR is NOI divided by the year's mortgage payments. At 1.0 the rent just covers the loan after operating costs; below 1.0 you pay the shortfall from other income. The defaults give 20,068.80 ÷ 17,963.17 = 1.12, and the 10%-down example at 8% gives 0.54. Lenders that qualify a loan on the property's income set their own minimum DSCR, so ask for yours before you rely on the rent.
