Understanding Key Investment Metrics
- Cash Flow: The difference between income and expenses, including mortgage payments. Positive cash flow is essential for sustainable real estate investing.
- Cap Rate: The ratio of net operating income to property value, expressed as a percentage. Higher cap rates generally indicate higher potential returns but may come with increased risk.
- Cash-on-Cash Return: The ratio of annual pre-tax cash flow to the total cash invested, expressed as a percentage. This metric helps investors understand the return on their actual cash investment.
- ROI (Return on Investment): A measure of the efficiency of an investment, calculated by dividing the return by the cost and expressed as a percentage. For rental properties, ROI takes into account both cash flow and property appreciation.
- Debt Service Coverage Ratio: The ratio of net operating income to debt service (mortgage payments). Lenders often require a minimum DSCR for investment property loans.
- Break-even Ratio: The ratio of operating expenses plus debt service to gross operating income. A lower ratio indicates less risk in the investment.
Each of these metrics provides valuable insight into different aspects of your rental property investment. By analyzing them together, you can make a more informed decision about a property's potential as an investment.
