📐 What is Cap Rate?
The Capitalization Rate measures an investment property's rate of return. Higher cap rate = higher cash flow potential, but may signal higher risk.
🏠 Price-to-Rent Ratio
A ratio below 15 strongly favors buying over renting and indicates good investment potential. Above 20 suggests the market may be overvalued for investors.
🛡️ Risk Grades
Ocity Risk Grades combine crime rate, market volatility, affordability, and economic health into a single A-F score. Grade A markets have the strongest fundamentals.
