A

measures the present value of the future benefits derived from property ownership. It is based on the conversion of the income producing capability of a property into value through the capitalization process.

Q

commercial properties

A

commercial properties are generally analyzed and valued on the basis of Net operating income, which includes deductions for vacancy and operating expenses, rather than gross income (before deduction of vacancy and operating expenses) as in the case with 1-4 family properties.

Q

Direct capitiliazation for residential

A
  • derive gross rent multiplier (GRM) for comps
    • sale price /total monthly rent for property

Q

Direct Capitalization for Commercial

A
  • Derive the overall capitalization rate
  • research market data, look for sales of comparable commercial properties
  • Using the data gathered about the comps calculate the capitalization rates for the comps
  • NOI of comps * Sale price of Comp= Cap rate of comp.
  • Use the overall cap rate of all comps to derive value of subject
  • NOI of subject / overall cap rate = Value

Q

Yield Capitalization

A

In yield capitalization, the income from each period over time including the reversion at the end is discounted back to present value using a discount rate

22
Q

Yield Capitalization

A
  • analyze the subjects income stream
  • conduct research to discover discount rate
  • calculate present value of income stream based on annual compounding using discount rate found from research
  • analyze the reversion or lump sum benefit to an investor of the property.
  • Research to indicate what the value would be at the end of the holding period.
  • calculate the present value of the future lump sum using the same discount rate
  • Add the FV of the lump sum and the income stream to obtain the yield capitalization value
23
Q

6 concepts and principles are influential to the income capitalization approach

A
  1. Highest and best use
  2. Anticipation and change
  3. Supply and demand
  4. Substitution
  5. Balance
  6. Externalities
24
Q

When to use the income approach

A

The income capitalization approach is suitable for properties that are bought and sold on the basis of the income they do or can produce, including hotels, office and apartment buildings, shopping centers, etc.

When information on rental data or required rates of return is lacking, this approach has little or no applicability (as is the case of most single-family residential markets or nuclear power plants).

25
Q

Terms related to income capitalization

A
Potential Gross Income
Effective Gross Income
Net Operation Income
Pre-Tax Cash Flow
After-Tax Cash Flow
Reversion
26
Q

Reversion

A

A reversion is defined as a lump-sum benefit that an investor receives or expects to receive at the termination of an investment.

27
Q

Rate of Return

A

The ratio of income or yield to the original investment; the ratio of the current annual net income generated from the operation of an enterprise to the capital investment, the net yield over the duration of the investment.

28
Q

Rate of return

A

the rate is a function of the future benefits to the original investment. It can be based either on a single-year performance or measured over an entire projection period (5 or more years). Typical investors seek recovery of the amount invested (i.e., the return OF capital) plus a profit (i.e., return ON capital).

29
Q

Rate of Return

A

For example, if a property generated $50,000 of annual net operating income, and the original investment was $500,000, a 10% annual rate of return would be calculated as follows:

Annual income from investment :$50,000
Original investment: $500,000

$50,000 / $500,000 = 10% Annual Rate of Return

30
Q

Equity Capitalization Rate

A

An equity capitalization rate (RE) is an income rate that reflects the relationship between a single year’s pre-tax cash flow expectancy and the equity investment used to convert pre-tax cash flow (equity dividend) into an equity value indication, also called the cash-on-cash rate, cash flow rate, or equity dividend rate. All that the equity capitalization rate is looking at is the amount of down payment and its corresponding rate.

31
Q

mortgage capitalization rate

A

This is the capitalization rate for debt or the ratio of the annual debt service to the principal amount of the mortgage loan. In other words, it is the ratio of income to mortgage amount. A mortgage capitalization rate may be calculated based on the initial mortgage amount or the outstanding mortgage amount; also called annual constant or mortgage constant.

32
Q

Other types of Rates used

A

mortgage capitalization rate
equity capitalization rate

these rates are used for a specific property interest as opposed to the overall capitalization rate. mortgage cap rate could be used to anticipate annual debt service, and equity cap rate can be used to anticipate equity received from a property

33
Q

Terms for Yield rates

A

interest rate - the return or yield rate on debt capital, usually express as the nominal annual percentage of the amount loaned or invested.

discount rate - an interest rate used to convert future payments or receipts into present value

34
Q

Return on and Return of Capital

A

Return “On” - refers to the additional amount received for use of the investors capital until it is recaptured

Return “Of” - refers to the recovery of the invested capital

35
Q

Return “On” and Return “Of”

A

Different treatments depend on the capitalization method employed.

Direct Cap - no separate mathematical distinction is made between return on and return of - its all the same rate.

Yield Cap - the distinction between return of and return on capital is always definite and precise for each years cash flow and reversion.

36
Q

Direct Capitalization

A

based on the anticipated income for the year following the purchase date or the effective date specified in the appraisal. It is the simple division of net operating income by a capitalization rate (hence, the name direct capitalization).

37
Q

Yield Capitalization

A

more complicated in that projection of many years of net operating income (return ON) together with reversion (return OF) must be made. These are then converted into value using a discounting process.

38
Q

Fundamental Considerations of Selecting a Discount Rate

A
  • judgement based on market evidence of the rate of return needed to attract mutual investment capital
  • Consider risk
  • consider market attitudes towards expected inflation and deflation
  • prospective rates of return for alternate investment opportunities
  • historical rates of return
  • supply and demand of mortgage funds
  • availability of tax shelters
39
Q

Overall Cap Rate - Direct Cap

A

used to evaluate income from a single one-year period not a stream of income over a number of years

40
Q

Cap Rate - Yield Cap

A

used to evaluate income from a stream of income over a number of years.

41
Q

Discount Rate

A

an interest rate used to convert future payments or receipts into present value

42
Q

Interest Rate

A

the rate of return or yield rate on debt capital, usually expressed as the nominal annual percentage change of the amount loaned of invested.
