A growing number of SI cities require landlords to register rental properties, pass periodic inspections, and pay an annual fee. Penalties for unlicensed operation typically include fines per day and, in some cases, retroactive return of collected rent. The rules apply to single-unit landlords, not just large operators.
Enforcement has shifted from complaint-driven to data-matching against utility and property-tax records. Many landlords discover they were non-compliant when they receive a back-fines notice years after acquiring the property.
The buy-vs-lease decision for owner-occupants leans on three factors most spreadsheets undercount: (1) tenant-improvement amortization that lease holders expense and owners capitalize, (2) opportunity cost of the down payment, (3) the fact that most growing businesses outgrow space in 5-7 years and end up subleasing the wrong building.
The "ownership creates equity" intuition is real but smaller than the operational flexibility cost for businesses still finding their footprint. A 5-year lease is often cheaper than a 10-year mortgage on the wrong square footage.
A cap rate is just NOI divided by price; it bakes in zero assumptions about the market, asset class, or capital structure. Two properties with identical 6% cap rates can have wildly different risk profiles depending on lease maturity, tenant credit, and capital reserve needs. Cap rate is a quick screening tool, not a buy signal.
Underwriting purely on cap rate is the most common reason new investors pay above-market prices. The same investors then blame "the market" when their projected returns do not materialize three years in.
