7. What is the GROSS Multiplier? (GM) Property Acquisition Price / Divided by NOI (Net Operating Income) Example: A $1.1 Million dollar acquisition with an annual NOI of $86,000 would have a 13.95% Gross Multiplier. Rule: The LOWER the GROSS Multiplier the better.
8. “ The rate of return a property will produce on the owner's investment.” What is a Cap Rate? - (Capitalization Rate) Two very important terms, this is how the value of Income property is determined – much like a stock, this is how the Bank will value the investment -
9. Capitalization Rate (CAP Rate) In real estate appraisal, capitalization is the process of converting income, in the case of real estate net rental income, to a property value. The capitalization rate or CAP Rate for short, is the ratio of yearly net income to the property value. For example, if you purchase an investment property for $120,000 dollars and can generate $1,000 per month after all operating expenses (before debt service) , then the CAP Rate would be $12,000 divided by $120,000 or 10 percent. This means it will take approximately 10 years to recoup the property value in net rental income assuming the rent stays the same. The lower the CAP Rate the better if you are selling and the higher the CAP Rate the better if you are buying. However, make sure the neighborhood is good and the property is in decent condition. CAP Rate does not help if the property is declining in value.
10. Cap Rate - Capitalization Rate The Capitalization Rate or Cap Rate is a ratio used to estimate the value of income producing properties. Put simply, the cap rate is the net operating income divided by the sales price or value of a property expressed as a percentage. Investors, lenders and appraisers use cap rates to estimate the purchase price for different types of income producing properties. A market cap rate is determined by evaluating the Financial data of similar properties which have recently sold in a specific market. It provides a more reliable estimate of value than a market Gross Rent Multiplier since the cap rate calculation utilizes more of a properties financial detail. The GRM calculation only considers a properties selling price and gross rents. The Cap Rate calculation incorporates a properties selling price, gross rents, non rental income, vacancy amount and operating expenses thus providing a more reliable estimate of value. “ The rate of return a property will produce on the owner's investment.”
11. In summary, from an investors or buyers perspective, the Higher the cap rate , the better…. NOI NOI Cap Rate = -------- Estimated Value = ------------- Value Cap Rate _____________________________________________________ Example 1: A property has a NOI of $155,000 &the asking price is $1,200,000 $155,000 Cap Rate = -------------- X 100 = 12.9 rounded $1,200,000 __________________________________________________________________________________ Example 2: A property has a NOI of $120,000 and Cap Rates in the area for this type of property are 12%. $120,000 Estimated Market Value = ------------ = $1,000,000 .12 Net Operating Income (NOI) is calculated as follows. Income Gross Rents Possible 35,000 Other Income 2,000 Total Gross Income 37,000 Less Vacancy Amount -3,000 Gross Operating Income 34,000 Less Operating Expenses 10,000 Net Operating Income 24,000
12. What NOI? (Net Operating Income NOI) Net operating income is determined by subtracting vacancy amount and operating expenses from a properties gross income. Operating expenses include the following items: Advertising, insurance, maintenance, property taxes, property management, repairs, supplies, utilities, etc. Operating expenses do not include the following items; Improvements such as a new roof, personal property such as a lawn mower, mortgage payments, income and capital gains taxes, loan origination fees, etc. Estimated or rounded flat fees can be used to determine a ball park NOI: Example, Tax’s 1%, Mgnt 10%, 4-5% all others combined….
13. What is Debt Coverage Ratio? Also known as Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR). The debt coverage ratio is a widely used benchmark which measures an income producing property's ability to cover the monthly mortgage payments. The DCR is calculated by dividing the net operating income (NOI) by a properties annual debt service. Annual debt service equals the annual total of all interest and principal paid for all loans on a property. A debt coverage ratio of less than 1 indicates that the income generated by a property is insufficient to cover the mortgage payments and operating expenses. For example, a DCR of .9 indicates a negative income. There is only enough income available after paying operating expenses to pay 90% of the annual mortgage payments or debt service. A property with a DCR of 1.25 generates 1.25 times as much annual income as the annual debt service on the property. In this example, the property creates 25% more income (NOI) than is required to cover the annual debt service.
14. Example: We are considering buying an investment property with a net operating income of $24,000 and annual debt service of $20,000. The DCR for this property would be equal to 1.2. This means that it generates 20% more annual net operating income than is required to cover the annual mortgage payment amount. Net Operating Income $24,000 Debt Coverage Ratio = ------------------------------ = ----------- = 1.2 Annual Debt Service $20,000 Many lending institutions require a minimum debt coverage ratio value to procure a loan for income producing properties. DCR requirements for lending institutions may vary from as low as 1.1 to as high as 1.35. From a lending institutions perspective, the higher the DCR value, the more income there is available to cover the debt service and thus the less the risk. What is Debt Coverage Ratio? (continued)
15. Summary of Important Terms: Rule 1: The LOWER the GROSS Multiplier the better. Rule 2: In summary, from an investors or buyers perspective, the Higher the Cap Rate , the better…. Rule 3: Positive DCR of a minimum of 1.1 should be achieved (unless tax write off is required or other strategy is being enforced.) Rule 4: GSI = Gross Schedule Income RAISE this as high as possible, use market rents to determine value of investment – Make 1 bedrooms 2s, 2 beds 3 beds and rent garages where possible – RAISE THE GSI Raise the VALUE!
