Net Operating Income (NOI) Definition, Formula, and Example

Net Operating Income (NOI) shows the profitability of a real estate investment property. It reflects the rental property's cash flow before deducting mortgage payments and taxes. Gross Rental Income is the total amount of money earned from a rental property. Typical operating expenses include property management fees, maintenance, insurance, utilities (e.g., WiFi, electricity, gas), and HOA fees.


Net Operating Income (NOI) vs Annual Pre-tax Cash Flow

The major difference between NOI and annual pre-tax cash flow is that NOI doesn't consider mortgage payments. NOI is used to calculate the Cap Rate, while Annual Pre-tax Cash Flow is used to calculate Cash-on-Cash Return.
