Common questions

What is a good cap rate?

Many investors look for 5% to 10%. Lower cap rates are typical in expensive, stable markets; higher ones come with more risk or work.

Does cap rate include the mortgage?

No. Cap rate ignores financing, so you can compare properties as if bought with cash. Use a cash-on-cash return calculator to include the loan.
