How Deal Analysis Works

1

Create Evaluation & Add Units

Enter property details and add units with current occupancy, rents, and renovation needs. Use single entry or profile mode for efficiency.

2

Configure Acquisition & Financing

Set 3-point estimates for purchase price, closing costs, and repairs. Choose your financing type and terms to see debt service impact.

3

Model Stabilization & Operations

The system calculates stabilization timeline from unit data. Add operating expenses to see NOI, expense ratio, and cash flow.

4

Define Exit & Compare Scenarios

Choose your exit method and hold period to see IRR and equity multiple. Save scenarios to compare different assumptions side by side.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 3-point estimate?

A 3-point estimate uses minimum, expected, and maximum values for key inputs like purchase price, closing costs, and expenses. This accounts for uncertainty and gives you a realistic range of outcomes rather than a single optimistic number. All calculations show expected values but consider the full range.

What metrics does the Deal Analyzer calculate?

The analyzer calculates cap rate, cash-on-cash return, internal rate of return (IRR), debt service coverage ratio (DSCR), gross rent multiplier (GRM), net operating income (NOI), monthly and annual cash flow, expense ratio, equity multiple, and projected sale proceeds.

What financing options are supported?

Brickfolio supports fixed-rate mortgages, adjustable-rate mortgages (ARM) with initial rate and caps, interest-only loans with conversion periods, and seller financing. You can compare scenarios with different financing structures.

How does scenario comparison work?

Save your current analysis as a named scenario at any time. The first scenario becomes your baseline. As you save additional scenarios (different prices, financing, assumptions), you can compare them against baseline with delta indicators showing improvements or declines.

What is the difference between Deal Analyzer and Offer Calculator?

The Deal Analyzer is a comprehensive 7-tab analysis tool for serious due diligence with unit-level tracking, stabilization timelines, exit strategies, and scenario comparison. The Offer Calculator is a quick, free tool for back-of-napkin analysis — no signup required, but no data is saved.

How does unit-level tracking work?

Add units individually or as profiles (e.g., "2BR/1BA" with quantity). Track current occupancy, tenant status (staying/turnover/leaving), current vs. target rent, and renovation needs. The system calculates stabilization timeline based on make-ready and lease-up times.
