Historically, a good cap rate for multifamily is over 4% and could be as high as 10%. That range comes down to the fact that several factors can influence a good cap rate and possibly make a low cap rate look better or a good one look worse than it is. Interest rates are an important factor in assessing cap rates.
Generally, a “good” cap rate is between 5% and 10%. Some aggressive investors target cap rates above 8% or even double digits. A cap rate around 5% is considered optimal for a balance between risk and return. Current multifamily cap rates are about 5.3%.

For instance, cap rates in cities like New York and San Francisco tend to be lower, often around 4% to 5%, due to high demand and strong property values. In contrast, markets like Dallas or Atlanta may offer cap rates of 6% to 7% or higher, reflecting differing market dynamics and risk levels.
