samco | Don't be tricked by the first part of the question. |
copus | The first part of the question is COMPLETELY irrelevant! |

shumwaya | think of the Cap Rate as the % of the total investment (price of bldg) you receive in the first year of ownership. so you receive 12% of your total investment (195,000) back in the 1st year aka 195,000*.12 = 23,400 |
