Frequently Asked Questions
AFT stands for After-Tax Cash Flow, which is the cash flow remaining after accounting for income taxes on an investment property.
Taxable income is Net Operating Income (NOI) minus interest expense and depreciation.
If taxable income is negative, no taxes are owed, and the after-tax cash flow equals pre-tax cash flow.
