Using Deductive Reasoning to Build a Local Property Capitalization Rate from the Capital Market and the Internet

Journal of Real Estate Literature, 2015, vol. 23, issue 1, 139-156

Abstract: This paper illustrates a new unique method to estimate a local capitalization rate using Internet data available in every office. It relies on the initial belief that all capitalization rates must begin with a national rate, which is adjusted by local market conditions for a specific land use. A major contribution is the illustration and recommendation of a new approach that relies on deductive reasoning from the national to the local markets rather than the traditional inferential approach that relies totally on local transactions. The conclusion is a new method to estimate a local capitalization rate should be added to every appraiser's toolkit to analyze market rates and values.
