GRM (Gross Rent Multiplier)
The fastest back-of-the-napkin screen in multifamily and small-asset CRE: price divided by gross rent. Calculate GRM or solve implied value from a target.
Inputs
GRM Benchmark Ranges (Florida Multifamily)
GRM is a quick screening tool. For institutional underwriting, always confirm value with cap rate (NOI ÷ price), DSCR, and a multi-year IRR analysis.
When to Use GRM — and When Not To
GRM is a screening tool. It tells you whether a property is in the ballpark before you spend time on a full underwriting model. Florida Class B multifamily generally trades at 8–11x GRM; Class A urban infill goes 11–14x; Class C / value-add at 6–9x. For institutional underwriting, always confirm with the cap rate, DSCR, and a multi-year IRR + equity multipleanalysis — GRM ignores expenses, financing, and the time value of money.
