If you buy a property with 50m equity and 50m debt. 1st year NOI is 5m so you have a 5% cap rate.
If the loan is 30 years with 5 year interest only, and the interest rate is 5%. Would your cash on cash return be equal to 5% ?

No. (If you're defining cash on cash return as cash flow relative to the downpayment, which I believe is the only definition)
NOI minus interest expense plus depreciation and other cash adjustments will give you a certain number (i.e. the operating cash flow). Then, this number over the $50M equity investment will be your cash on cash return.
Thanks Alex. But I think NOI captures the expense already? So our before tax cash flow is just 2.5m (5m - 2.5m interest payment) and cash on cash is 2.5m/50m = 5%?
I got asked in an interview a similar question, with a project with 5% cap rate and 50% ltv. Interest rate was 4.5%. Will the cash on cash return be higher or lower than 5%?
I said it would be higher if I/O for the first year and lower than 5% if we amortize principal starting from 1st year, since loan constant will be higher than 5% with a 4.5% loan.
NOI is definitely pre-interest and pre-tax.
