In this concise YouTube short, the presenter first asks viewers to like and subscribe to help the video reach other property owners. He then walks through a rapid real‑estate valuation example: a 12‑unit building with $480,000 gross rents, $152,000 operating expenses, and an assumed 3% vacancy rate yields a net operating income (NOI) of $313,600. Applying a 6.5% capitalization (cap) rate, the building’s estimated market value is approximately $4.8 million. The clip is aimed at owners and investors seeking a quick, back‑of‑the‑envelope property valuation method.

One quick ask before I start. If this helps you, hit like and subscribe. That is what puts this in front of other owners who are about to walk into the same conversation. Alright, let's get to the numbers. Take a 12-unit building. Gross rents of $480,000. Your operating expenses are $152,000 and you are running at about 3% vacancy because the building is full. That puts your net operating income at $313,600. Apply a 6.5% cap rate and your building is worth about $4.8 million.
