Cap rates are important in real estate, especially for sponsors. It may describe the value of a structure and how it is computed.
It is done by dividing net operating income by the cost of the facility.
For example, if a sponsor spends a million dollars on a property and the NOI from that property is $50,000, the sponsor would have paid a 5% cap rate to obtain the building and would earn a 5% return on their million-dollar investment.
The idea of a “cap rate” is used by a sponsor to estimate the worth of the project after 5 years.
They’re anticipating that investors, or anyone who wants to buy the building, would demand a 6% return on their investment.
So, if the cost of the building is a million dollars, investors should expect a 60,000-dollar income per year in exchange for a million-dollar investment. Of course, if the cap rate changes in five years, let us pretend it is 3 percent. What does that imply? Correct! Wouldn’t that mean that prices have risen?
Because investors, if they only want a 3% return on their money in five years, would mean that a building delivering 60,000 dollars in income would be worth $2 million.
So the investor will spend $2 million to get that 60,000 dollars in NOI at a 3% cap. So this spans the years 2010 and up till 2016. And it shows how cap rates are falling for office, industrial, retail, multifamily, and hotel properties through time. So what does this tell you about pricing? Correct! It is informing you that costs are rising.
People are willing to take a lesser return on their investments, which implies they fine spending more on a building.
This is the notion of cap rate.
