Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between residential and commercial property analysis?
Residential properties (1–4 units) use 27.5-year depreciation and conventional residential financing. Commercial properties (5+ units) use 39-year depreciation and commercial loan terms (3–5 year ARM, 25–30 year amortization). Commercial deals also typically require DSCR ≥ 1.25 vs. 1.0 for residential.
What is a good cap rate for commercial property?
Cap rates of 5–8% are common in high-demand markets (major metros). 8–12% cap rates are typical in secondary markets. Properties with cap rates above 10% carry higher risk or more vacancy. Our template grades deals automatically.
What is NOI in real estate?
Net Operating Income (NOI) = Gross Rental Income − Operating Expenses. It does not include debt service, capital expenditures, or depreciation. NOI is the core metric for valuing commercial properties: Value = NOI ÷ Cap Rate.
Does this work for apartment building syndications?
Yes. The commercial property template supports 5+ unit apartment buildings with all the metrics syndicators use: NOI, cap rate, IRR, equity multiple, and 39-year depreciation. Perfect for evaluating syndication deals as a passive investor.
Is this for active investors or passive investors?
Both. Active investors use it to analyze deals before bidding. Passive investors use it to evaluate deals presented to them by syndicators or brokers — to independently verify the numbers before committing capital.
