How this is calculated

  1. 1Gross annual rent = monthly rent × 12.
  2. 2NOI = gross annual rent × (1 − vacancy %) − operating expenses.
  3. 3Cap rate = NOI ÷ price.
  4. 4GRM = price ÷ gross annual rent.

Neither metric accounts for financing. Use the rental cash flow calculator to see returns with a mortgage.
