CAP Rate Question?
Hello All,
I am a new member that has minimal experience with single family homes. I've got 2 rental properties that I've owned for many years. I intend to move towards multifamily units and increase my portfolio. At present I am "practicing" evaluating properties to buy.
I had found this (see link below) near a condo I own. From what I understand CAP Rate = NOI/Cost Basis.
The price is $1,700,000.00 for a 28 unit property and they are advertising a CAP Rate of 7.46%.

That is 1,700,000.00 x 0.0746 = $126,820.00 (Gross)
$126,820.00 / 28 Units = $4,529.00 (Gross)
Am I calculating that correctly? They have 24 x 1 Bedroom Apts @ 700 sq/ft and 4 x 2 Bedroom Apts @ 1,100 sq/ft. There is no way they are getting and average of $4,529.00 per unit for these apartments. Am I missing something...or is the CAP Rate being advertised grossly overstated?
Thx for your input!
Best Regards,
Kevin
