The Cap Rate is a ratio used to estimate the value of income-producing properties, which describes a return rate acceptable to an investor taking the risk of a capital investment. The basic calculation to figure out the Cap Rate is as follows:
NOI / Cost = Cap Rate
Net Operating Income (building rental revenue) / building cost to purchase or value = Cap rate
This essentially tells you how many years it will take to pay off the property using the revenue.
