The buildup rate is a method to develop a capitalization rate by adding the individual components contributing to the risk and return of an investment. It offers a systematic approach to evaluate the total return expected for real estate investments.
In finance and real estate, capitalization is the process of deriving a present value for future income through a capitalization rate. In accounting, it involves setting up an asset on financial records to be depreciated over its useful life rather than expensed immediately.

A technique used in the appraisal of mortgaged income property to estimate its present value by discounting the future annual cash flow and expected resale proceeds.
The Income Approach is one of three methods used to appraise real estate value, primarily utilized for properties that generate consistent income, such as apartments, office buildings, hotels, and shopping centers.
The Overall Rate of Return (OAR) is a metric that calculates the percentage yield of a property based on its Net Operating Income (NOI) divided by the property’s purchase price. This metric helps investors evaluate the profitability of real estate investments and compare different properties.
Portfolio value refers to the aggregate value of a real estate portfolio, potentially exceeding the summed individual values of its constituent assets due to operational efficiencies, synergies, or collective appeal.
Recapture rate in appraisal describes the rate at which an investment is recovered in a wasting asset. It is added to the discount rate to derive the capitalization rate. This rate can be calculated using methods such as straight-line, sinking fund, or annuity.
The Straight-Line Recapture Rate is a component of the capitalization rate that accounts for the annual loss in value of a wasting asset by assuming equal depreciation each year over the asset's useful life.
