Study Notes
Investor's Relationship to Income
- Understanding how income relates to value is crucial for investors
- Investors consider potential return on investment and compare to other opportunities
- Income capitalization is the process of converting income into value
Gross Income
- Potential gross income (PGI) is the total income a property could generate
- Effective gross income (EGI) is PGI minus vacancy and collection losses
- Net operating income (NOI) is EGI minus operating expenses
- Operating expenses are necessary costs to maintain property's income-producing ability
- Reconstructed operating statements provide a detailed breakdown of income and expenses
Capitalization Rate
- Direct capitalization is the process of converting NOI into value
- Formula: Value = NOI / Capitalization Rate
- Direct capitalization is a simplified valuation method
- Capitalization rates represent the expected rate of return for an investment property
- Understanding capitalization rates is crucial for making informed investment decisions
- Various methods can be used to estimate capitalization rates
- Comparable Sales Method: analyzes capitalization rates of similar properties
- Band of Investment Method: calculates capitalization rate by considering the expected rate of return on debt and equity
Gross Income Multipliers and Residual Techniques
- Gross income multipliers (GIMs) are used to estimate value based on property's gross income
- GIMs are calculated by dividing the property's value by its annual gross income
- Residual techniques are used to estimate the value of a specific component of a property
- For example, residual techniques can be used to determine the land value or the building's value
- This technique determines the value of a property by subtracting the value of the other components from the total value
Investor's Relationship to Income and Value
- Investors seek a return on their investments.
- Investors evaluate the value of a property based on its potential to generate income.
- The higher the income, the higher the value.
Acceptable Rate of Return
- Investors consider competing investment opportunities when determining their acceptable rate of return.
- Rate of return is dependent on factors like risk, liquidity, and potential appreciation.
Direct Capitalization Formula
- Direct capitalization allows investors to estimate value based on current income and a capitalization rate.
- Formula: Value = Net Operating Income / Capitalization Rate.
Types of Income
- Potential gross income (PGI): The total potential income from a property if it were fully occupied and all rents were collected.
- Effective gross income (EGI): PGI minus vacancy and collection losses.
- Net operating income (NOI): EGI minus operating expenses. Operating expenses are costs necessary to operate the property.
- Before-tax cash flow: NOI minus debt service. Debt service includes principal and interest payments on a mortgage.
Reconstructed Operating Statement
- A reconstructed operating statement is used to analyze a property's income and expense streams.
- It helps determine NOI and before-tax cash flow.
- Reconstructed statements are important for appraisal and investment analysis.
Capitalization Rate and Income Multipliers
- Capitalization rates (cap rates) are used to convert income into value.
- The larger the cap rate, the lower the value.
- There are three methods for estimating cap rates.
- Comparable sales method: Analyze cap rates from comparable properties that recently sold.
- Band of investment method: Combines the cap rate for land (using land value and the going rate) with the rate of return for improvements.
- Build-up method: Adds an appropriate rate of return on equity to the cost of debt.
- Gross income multipliers (GIMs) can be used to estimate value based on gross income.
- GIMs are typically used for properties with low operational expenses, particularly residential properties.
- Residual techniques estimate the value of a property by subtracting the known values of other components.
Discounting
- Discounting is used to calculate the present value of a future payment.
- Investors use discounting to evaluate the potential return on capital over time.
