How can I get a valuation of my property?

A commonly used method for determining the value of a storage property is to determine its capitalization rate.

Cap rate is determined by dividing the Net Operating Income (NOI) by the value of property. For instance, if NOI was $90,000 and the property value was $1.2 million, the formula would look like this:

90,000 ÷ 1,200,00 = .75 or 7.5%

Calculating NOI forthis formula requires a lot of assumptions into the nature of income and expenses. It’s also important to have a recent property valuation for the equation to work.

While cap rate can give buyers and sellers a ballpark valuation for the property, it’s only as accurate as the data put into it. A company with industry experience in buying and selling properties and market intelligence can take a more in-depth approach to create a fair market value.
