How do I build a CRE DCF model in Excel with a debt schedule and IRR?

To build a CRE DCF model in Excel, you need NOI-based cash flows, a debt schedule with IO or amortizing options, and return metrics like IRR and equity multiple, which this modeler automates into a structured 7-tab workbook.

Can I underwrite mixed-use and multifamily acquisitions using the same Excel model?

Yes, the same Excel model underwrites mixed-use, multifamily, office, retail, and industrial acquisitions, applying NOI-based cash flows and cap rate exits uniformly across all supported CRE property types.

What's the best way to add sensitivity analysis to a real estate underwriting workbook?

The best way to add sensitivity analysis is using a structured DCF framework that includes cap rate exits and varying debt scenarios, generating ready-to-present return metrics like IRR and cash-on-cash.

Does this CRE underwriting model work with ExcelJS workflows?

Yes, the generated 7-tab underwriting workbook uses standard CRE formatting, cross-sheet references, and validation checks, ensuring full compatibility with both native Excel and ExcelJS workflows.

How do NOI-based cash flow waterfalls work in commercial real estate underwriting?

NOI-based cash flow waterfalls distribute property income by first funding operating expenses and debt service, then allocating remaining cash flows to equity to calculate returns like equity multiple and debt yield.
