TRANSPARENT MATH

Know what the numbers mean.

NOI

Effective rental income minus operating expenses, before mortgage principal and interest.

NOI = Effective Gross Income − Operating Expenses

Cap Rate

Annual net operating income divided by property purchase price.

Cap Rate = NOI ÷ Property Value × 100

Cash-on-Cash

Annual pre-tax cash flow divided by the initial cash invested in the deal.

Cash-on-Cash Return = Annual Pre-Tax Cash Flow ÷ Total Cash Invested × 100

DSCR

Net operating income divided by annual principal-and-interest debt service.

DSCR = NOI ÷ Annual Debt Service
