Multifamily Cap Rates Nova Scotia
Hi Everyone,
I own 2 rental properties (Halifax, Nova Scotia & Antigonish) and have reached my ah-ha moment on multifamily. Through my direct mailing campaign I've got some leads generated for multifamily buildings. I've created a multifamily calculator to evaluate deals and I'm stuck on my cap rates. I understand the general concept:
1) Cap rate = NOI / Market Value of Building
2) Higher the cap rate = higher return on investment, however it comes with higher risk
3) Low cap rates are around 3-5.5%, high cap rate 5.5%+
4) Cap rate is dependent on the market and is "what the market with accept" to put it that way
Can I have some input on this? Ideally specific to the Nova Scotia market. Please feel free to correct me, always happy to learn from others.
