I'm not an acquisitions guys but I'm going to go out on a limb and say the following:

0 = (purchase price) + CF1/(1+.12)^1 + CF2/(1+.12)^2 + etc.

--> You have the top line so you need to figure your expenses to solve for CFs: know lease type (N, NN, NNN) and then make assumptions for expenses based on industry/local market knowledge. Deduct capex from NOI to get to CFs. --->Insert into equation above and solve for purchase price.

Anyone can correct me if need be.

 

A newbie question. I was under the impression that the NPV is the summation of cash flows with the deduction of purchase price. It is the profit from a venture, isnt it?If the NPV from a series of cash flows and purchase price with an assumption of a particular discount rate is 15K for example, I thought you can assume that you will be able to make a profit of 15K after paying all debt obligations. Am I wrong? When I read your comment, I thought you meant NPV is what you would be willing to pay.

NPV finds what a series of future cash flows are worth today. It takes into account required rate of return. Think of it this way... What is the maximum amount of cash I'm willing to outlay upfront if I require a 12% return and I believe the project will cash flow at x amount annually? The Net Present Value is the answer to this question.

You make future cash flow growth assumptions and then work your way back. If you payout more than the PV of future cash flows then you wont realize your required rate of return.
