Let's start with what you're paying to own the asset — before we talk about what it earns.

📚 Terms & Definitions — Multifamily
NOI — Net Operating Income
Effective gross income minus all operating expenses — including utilities, repairs, management, HOA, and CapEx reserve — before debt service. In this analyzer, property taxes and insurance are grouped with the mortgage payment (PITI) below the NOI line. NOI drives property value in commercial real estate.
Cap Rate — Capitalization Rate
NOI divided by purchase price. A 7% cap rate means you earn 7% of the property value annually before debt. Lower cap rates generally indicate hotter or safer markets.
DSCR — Debt Service Coverage Ratio
NOI divided by annual P&I debt service. Commercial lenders typically require 1.20–1.25 minimum. Below 1.0 means the property cannot cover its own mortgage from income.
EGI — Effective Gross Income
Gross potential rent plus ancillary income, minus vacancy and credit loss. This is the realistic income you can actually collect — not the theoretical 100% occupied number.
Cash Flow
NOI minus debt service (P&I, taxes, and insurance). HOA and CapEx reserve are already deducted above the NOI line. This is what actually lands in your pocket each year.
Cash-on-Cash Return
Annual cash flow divided by total cash invested (down payment + closing costs). Measures how hard your actual out-of-pocket dollars are working — not the property's total return including appreciation or loan paydown.
CapEx Reserve
A reserve set aside from income for future capital expenditures — roof, HVAC, plumbing, appliances. In this analyzer, CapEx reserve is included in operating expenses and reduces NOI and cap rate. A deal that looks good before CapEx may not hold up once reserves are properly accounted for.
Operating Expenses
All costs to run the property above the NOI line — utilities, repairs, management, HOA, and CapEx reserve. In this analyzer, property taxes and insurance are grouped with the mortgage payment (PITI) below NOI. The 50% rule estimates operating expenses at half of gross rent as a quick screening benchmark.
Price Per Unit
Purchase price divided by number of units. A quick benchmarking metric to compare multifamily deals in the same market. Not a substitute for NOI-based underwriting, but useful for initial filtering.
Vacancy Rate
The percentage of units unoccupied in a given period. A 5% vacancy rate on a 10-unit building means roughly half a unit empty on average. Always underwrite with realistic local vacancy — not best-case assumptions.
