It now only exists here on multifamily properties, after we got it overturned a few years ago. 

The ROE is very low with my $82k equity and so I want to use that equity elsewhere without selling the property.Please offer your advice and maybe some solutions to my predicament and how I can continue to further my portfolio.

If at the end of the first year with your rental property in operation that you are able to profit $10,000 from cash flow after all operational expenses and debt service were paid, your COC return would be $10,000/$30,000 or 33%.Sophisticated investors compare COC with other investments to determine the highest and best use for their liquidity going into an investment whereas ROE is used once the investment is owned.

@Jeff Moore if it’s in a good location with rising rents then it seems like a good enough ROE to hold.

Know whatever you agree to during Mediation can not be overturned, even by a judge, so knowing your options before you go to mediation and knowing that you are qualified to keep the property is vital. 

CA.we bought a smoking deal and they hired a lawyer and took it to trial.. we of course thought we would win hands downturns out the county that year only published the sale 19 days instead of 21 days as is the law .. so we lost.Every single property lost that year could have been over turned but it would have taken court cases in each and every instance.. we bought well over 100 properties that year and lost that one.

Yes this is an ROE.

@Joseph Getgen, If this property was cash flowing strong and providing a superior ROE then I'd be tempted to say hang on.

Shouldn't we be looking at other calculation like Return on Equity (ROE),  Internal Rate of Return (IRR) etc?
