U.S. Census Bureau data (2024)
The Section 8 cap-rate analysis for ZIP code 74354 in Miami, OK, reveals a mixed picture when comparing Federal Market Rent (FMR) to market rent. Using the annualized 2BR FMR of $1,000 for FY 2026, the implied gross yield is approximately 7.9%. This calculation is derived by multiplying the monthly FMR of $1,000 by 12 months and dividing by the median home value of $126,407.
In contrast, using the Census ACS reported market rent of $830, the implied gross yield drops to about 6.6%. This figure is calculated similarly, by annualizing the $830 market rent and comparing it to the median home value.
The difference between these two yields highlights the potential discrepancy between government-set rents and actual market conditions. Given the 36.8% renter density in the area, it's important to consider that a significant portion of the population is already租房市场的情况。考虑到该地区36.8%的租房密度,以及平均待售时间为60天,使用市场租金$830来计算毛收益率更为现实。虽然Section 8计划提供的租金为$1,000,但实际市场情况可能会影响这一数字的有效性。投资者需要根据这些数据进行自己的净运营收入(NOI)计算,以确定最合适的投资策略。总的来说,尽管Section 8计划可能提供较高的租金,但市场租金更能反映当前的投资回报率。
