Cap Rate

Est. NOI Net Operating Income = annual gross rental revenue minus operating expenses (cleaning, property management, taxes, insurance, HOA, utilities, maintenance, supplies) — but before mortgage payments.

We estimate it as NOI = Projected Annual Revenue × 40%, assuming ~60% of gross goes to operating expenses on a typical Tahoe STR.

NOI feeds the cap rate below: Cap Rate = NOI ÷ List Price.
