Cash-on-Cash Return
The annual pre-tax cash flow from a rental property expressed as a percentage of the total cash invested.
Cash-on-cash return measures the annual cash income generated by a rental property relative to the amount of cash actually invested (down payment, closing costs, initial renovations). Unlike cap rate, it accounts for financing. For example, if you invested $80,000 in cash and the property generates $12,000 in annual net cash flow, your cash-on-cash return is 15%. STR investments in Florida markets often achieve cash-on-cash returns of 10–20% when professionally managed.
