10-Year SIGNATURE Edition | Rent Roll | NOI | Mortgage Financing | Investment Returns

Underwrite commercial investment properties with a structured, fully editable Excel financial model connecting tenant-level leases, operating cash flow, mortgage financing and discounted property valuation.

The Commercial Real Estate Valuation & DCF Model – SIGNATURE Edition by SheetworksStudio is a professional commercial property investment analysis system designed for real estate investors, acquisition analysts, asset managers, lenders, investment consultants and property owners.

Rather than relying on a single rental growth assumption, the model incorporates individual tenant agreements, contractual lease expiry dates, expected renewals, reletting assumptions and market rents into a comprehensive 10-year annual property forecast.

The workbook includes 15 integrated worksheets, 500 prepared lease records, 8 dynamic dashboard charts, 4 sensitivity matrices, 3 underwriting scenarios and a professional 21-page PDF guide.

📊 EXECUTIVE DASHBOARD & INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE

Review essential commercial property performance indicators through a professionally designed Executive Dashboard.

Key investment metrics include:

• DCF Property Value
• Year-1 Net Operating Income (NOI)
• Physical Occupancy
• Cash-on-Cash Return
• Debt Yield
• Levered Equity IRR
• Going-In Capitalization Rate
• Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR)
• Initial Loan-to-Value Ratio (LTV)
• Net Exit Proceeds

Eight native Excel charts visualize:

1. Rental Collections versus NOI
2. NOI and Property Cash Flow
3. Physical versus Economic Occupancy
4. Lease Expiries by Area
5. Tenant Improvements and Leasing Commissions
6. Mortgage Debt Balance
7. Debt Service Coverage Ratio
8. Operating Cash Flow to Equity

Dashboard outputs are linked to the underlying financial model and update when assumptions and scenarios change.

🏢 500-ROW RENT ROLL & TENANT-LEVEL UNDERWRITING

The RENT ROLL worksheet supports up to 500 individual tenant and lease records.

Fifteen fictional commercial lease agreements are included to demonstrate the workbook’s functionality.

Users can configure:

• Tenant and Lease Identification
• Property Use Classification
• Unit References
• Net Lettable Area
• Lease Commencement and Expiry Dates
• Contractual Passing Rent
• Estimated Rental Value (ERV)
• Annual Contractual Rent Increases
• Renewal Probabilities
• Reletting Downtime
• Rent-Free Periods
• Tenant Improvements
• Leasing Commission Assumptions

Unlike a simplified rental income calculator, this approach connects individual lease terms to the property’s projected occupancy, rental income and cash flow.

Lease Expiry & Rollover Engine

The integrated LEASE ENGINE evaluates the expected consequences of lease expirations and future leasing activity.

The model applies probability-weighted assumptions for tenant renewals, expected reletting, market rental values, downtime and related leasing expenditures.

Review how tenancy changes influence expected rental receipts, physical and economic occupancy, tenant improvement spending, leasing commissions and property cash flow.

Model convention: Lease rollover is calculated using annual expected-value assumptions. It is not a monthly stochastic lease simulation.

💰 OPERATING EXPENSES, NOI & PROPERTY CASH FLOW

Evaluate the relationship between property income, operating costs and investment cash generation.

The model includes 15 configurable operating expense categories, covering property taxes, insurance, maintenance, utilities, security, administration and other property operating costs.

Expense assumptions can be adjusted for category-specific inflation and tenant recoverability.

The PROPERTY CASH FLOW module calculates:

• Gross Market Rental Value
• Expected Tenant Rental Income
• Vacancy and Collection Losses
• Ancillary Property Income
• Operating Expense Recoveries
• Effective Gross Income (EGI)
• Operating Expenses
• Net Operating Income (NOI)
• Recurring Capital Reserves
• Tenant Improvements
• Leasing Commissions
• Unlevered Property Free Cash Flow

These calculations provide a transparent financial bridge from tenant-level income assumptions to investment cash flows.

🏦 MORTGAGE FINANCING, LOAN AMORTIZATION & DSCR

The DEBT SCHEDULE connects acquisition assumptions with annual financing and investor cash flows.

Financing functionality includes:

• Acquisition Loan Amount
• Initial Loan-to-Value Ratio (LTV)
• Interest Rate Assumptions
• Effective Annual Interest
• Scheduled Principal Amortization
• Mortgage Maturity
• Balloon Repayment
• Opening and Closing Debt Balances
• Annual Debt Service
• Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR)
• Debt Yield
• Indicative LTV Monitoring
• Selected Lending Covenant Indicators

The model applies a simplified fixed-payment mortgage structure with annual cash flow reporting.

Debt financing outputs are linked directly to the investment-return calculations.

📈 10-YEAR DCF VALUATION & INVESTOR RETURNS

Discounted Cash Flow Valuation

Estimate an indicative property value using the discounted cash flow methodology.

The model calculates the present value of projected annual unlevered property cash flows and the estimated terminal disposal proceeds.

The valuation framework incorporates:

• Annual Unlevered Free Cash Flow
• Discount Rate
• Forward Stabilized Exit NOI
• Exit Capitalization Rate
• Gross Terminal Property Value
• Disposal Costs
• Net Terminal Sale Proceeds
• Indicative DCF Property Value
• Property Value per Square Meter
• Going-In Capitalization Rate
• Premium or Discount to Acquisition Price

The model distinguishes the actual assumed acquisition price from the calculated DCF valuation.

Levered & Unlevered Investment Returns

Evaluate the investment before and after mortgage financing.

The INVESTMENT RETURNS worksheet includes:

• Initial Acquisition Cash Flows
• Annual Property Investment Cash Flows
• Unlevered Project IRR
• Levered Equity IRR
• Equity Investment Multiples
• Cash-on-Cash Returns
• Investor Equity Contributions
• Annual Debt Service
• Investor Proceeds at Exit

Financial returns are calculated on a before-income-tax basis, using the modeled operating, financing and exit assumptions.

🔄 THREE SCENARIOS & FOUR SENSITIVITY MATRICES

Compare alternative commercial property market conditions.

BASE CASE

Central assumptions for contractual rent, vacancy, operating costs, financing and terminal capitalization rates.

UPSIDE CASE

More favorable leasing, rental income, expense and valuation assumptions.

DOWNSIDE CASE

More conservative assumptions incorporating weaker rental performance, higher operating expenses, financing pressure or lower exit valuation.

The workbook also provides four formula-driven sensitivity matrices:

1. DCF Property Value – Exit Cap Rate × Vacancy

Understand how terminal capitalization rates and vacancy assumptions influence indicative property valuation.

2. Equity IRR – Exit Cap Rate × Loan Interest

Evaluate the combined effects of exit valuation and financing interest rates on equity returns.

3. DCF Property Value – Rent Shift × Vacancy

Explore changes in property value resulting from rental pricing and expected vacancy.

4. Equity IRR – Rent Shift × Loan Interest

Examine the relationship between rental economics, financing costs and levered investor performance.

Scenario selection and the central underwriting assumptions feed into the integrated financial calculations.

IMPORTANT MODEL LIMITATIONS & DISCLAIMER

This workbook is an illustrative commercial real estate underwriting and valuation model, not a certified property appraisal, statutory accounting system, development financial model or multi-property portfolio consolidation platform.

The model uses annual financial periods, simplified probability-weighted lease renewals, expected reletting assumptions and before-income-tax investment returns.

The workbook does not include detailed monthly rent collection accounting, jurisdiction-specific property taxation, complex loan refinancing arrangements or complete stochastic tenant default modeling.

All sample tenants, property assumptions, financial values and investment results are fictional and provided for demonstration purposes.

Users are responsible for independently reviewing lease documents, market rental evidence, operating expenses, financing conditions, discount rates and financial calculations before making investment decisions.

Passing the model’s built-in checks does not guarantee commercial feasibility, lender approval, investment profitability or the accuracy of user-entered assumptions.

This product does not constitute investment, financial, accounting, tax, legal, real estate appraisal or professional business advice.
