FAQ

What is a good cap rate?+

It depends on the market and risk. Many investors target 5–8% in stable markets, with higher cap rates in higher-risk or cash-flow markets. A 'good' cap rate is one that beats your alternatives at a risk you're comfortable with.

Does cap rate include the mortgage?+

No. Cap rate is unleveraged — it ignores financing so you can compare properties apples-to-apples. To factor in your loan, use the cash-on-cash calculator.
