Acquisition and investment analysis

An investment view is only as good as the cash it is built from. Property Pulse calculates returns from the acquisition cash you actually paid and the transactions the property has actually recorded.

In short

How does Property Pulse calculate acquisition returns?
Acquisition cash is modelled explicitly — deposit plus funds due at closing — and settlement-funded items are kept out of operating cash flow. Return metrics are calculated from the property's own dated cash flows, with a minimum holding period applied before an internal rate of return is reported.

Acquisition analysis details

Acquisition cash recorded explicitly

Deposits and funds due at closing are recorded as acquisition cash. Items funded at settlement are marked as such, so they reduce nothing twice and do not appear as ongoing operating outflows.

Current and projected returns

Current return uses the dated equity cash flows to date; projected return uses editable forward assumptions. Both are calculated with an irregular-interval IRR, and short holding periods are flagged rather than annualised into nonsense.

Valuation with provenance

Valuations record their source, date, and reference, and age into stale states instead of quietly persisting, so a return figure is never propped up by a number nobody can place.

Where these statements come from

  • Product fact

    Acquisition cash is modelled explicitly, settlement-funded items are excluded from operating cash flow, and a minimum holding period is enforced before an internal rate of return is shown.

  • Methodology

    Return figures are computed from dated cash flows recorded against the property, using an irregular-interval internal rate of return rather than an annualised approximation.
