IRV Formula
Definition
IRV stands for Income, Rate, and Value. It represents the relationship between Net Operating Income (I), Capitalization Rate (R), and Property Value (V).
Example
If you know the NOI is $40,000 and the cap rate is 8%, you can use the IRV formula to find the value: Value = $40,000 / 0.08 = $500,000.
Exam Tip
Draw a triangle and label the top 'I' (Income), and the bottom corners 'R' (Rate) and 'V' (Value). This visual aid can help you quickly recall the formula during the exam.
