๐ฅThe capitalization rate is used to compare different investment opportunities. For example, if all else equal, a property with an 8% cap rate versus another with a 5% cap rate, an investor is most likely to focus on the property with an 8% cap rate.
๐CAP rates will differ from location and risk. What is considered a good cap rate in a large city may not be the same in the outskirts where it is less populated. The lower the risk of the investment, the lower your cap rate (return) will be.
๐In general, 5%-10% is considered to be a good CAP rate. Also, 3% above your mortgage interest rate will give you good cash flow (in general)
โThis is a very basic introductions, there are CAP rate models that go into much more detail to come up with the calculations.
