RE Modeling Exam help
I found this old link on WSO with a sample modeling test:
Build a 5 year prorforma. Assume 1% transaction costs for entrance and exit fee for debt and 1% for sale of property. Solve for entry price and entrance cap as well as all of the other data points below assuming you are required to hit a 15% IRR. Make sure everything is sensitized IE dont hard code any inputs into the model. You want to be able to see how changing growth rate from 4% to 2% changes your outputs. Also build an amortization table on separate tab. If you want to impress, build a couple sensitivity tables at the end IE use interest rate and entry cap as your sensitivities with IRR as your output. sorry my formatting is garbage. Everything is a given assumption until you get to "Solve for the following"
Assumptions Income
Weighted Avg Rent (Per Unit) $3,048.00 Rent Growth (1-2) 4% Rent Growth (3+) 3% Vacancy Factor 5% Parking Income $200,000.00 Other Misc Income $90,000.00 Income Growth Rate 3%
Units 125
Expenses
OpEx (per unit) $790 CaPex Reserve (per Unit) $200 Expense Growth Rates 3%
Debt
LTV 70% Interest Rate (Amortizing) 6%
Sale
Exit Cap Rate 6% No Transaction Costs
Building SF 88,600.00
Solve For the Following:
Solve for entrance price and entry cap rate assuming you require a 15% IRR to do the deal
Entrance Cap Rate Purchase Price Purchase Price PSF Loan Amount Equity Levered IRR Equity Multiple Unlevered IRR Sales Price PSF
