Our Real Estate Income Analysis software enables real estate professionals
to analyze and value income producing real estate, applying advanced mathematical
techniques. It calculates the value, based upon the yield requirements
and projections of the analyst. Financing, closing costs, selling expenses,
income growth and property appreciation are among the many factors considered.
Holding periods can range between 1 and 60 years. Reports can be printed,
pasted or saved to an Excel spreadsheet, PDF file, or RTF file. They can
be merged into a word processing document.
Extract yield rates, determine the property's value, or calculate the IRR,
based upon different assumptions. Analyst builds a cap rate, using the
Mortgage Equity Technique. It also calculates the value of the cash flows
using the Discounted Cash Flow method. Sensitivity Analysis is easy and
informative.
Whether you need to develop a capitalization rate, do a basic discounted
cash flow analysis, or perform a complicated lease analysis, Investment
Analyst will help you do it quickly, professionally, and accurately. Whether it is an apartment building, office building, hotel or strip shopping
center, Analyst will produce results that you can trust.
Our clients have again and again praised Investment Analyst and its predecessor
Caprate Calculator for ease of use, comprehensiveness and quality. These characteristics did not come about by accident. Each facet of our software has been honed, refined and polished over many
years.
Three Versions of Investment Analyst
Investment Analyst is offered in three versions because each user has different
analysis needs. Each is the latest generation. We invite you to review
the features of each version and choose the one that is best for you. Learn more about each version
Why Choose Investment Analyst?
Many things should be considered before you purchase Income Analysis software. You probably have already spent hours searching, gathering information, and comparing products. To see what we think are the most important considerations, click here.
Investment Analyst has been around since 1987 (longer than any competitive
product) and we make Analyst better each year. Do not be misled by the
high prices and high maintenance fees of other income analysis software.
Price and quality are not always synonymous.
Investment Analyst and quality are synonymous. Our products are written
from "scratch" and not dependent upon spreadsheets like Excel
that are designed by part-time "experts." Analyst has all of
the "bells and whistles," Analyst is the easiest to use, and
Analyst produces the best analysis documentation.
But we price our products so that small firms, individuals, and large institutions
all can fit Analyst into their budgets.
Whether you are a large financial institution that needs an income analysis
tool every day, a small appraisal firm that only does a few commercial
properties each year, an investor who need to evaluate a potential investment,
or a real estate broker who needs to prepare a comprehensive presentation,
you can trust Investment Analyst.
Our clients have been trusting Analyst for 20 years. In the span of one
week recently we heard from three clients (unsolicited). The wife of a
retiring appraiser wrote us and said "I would like to thank you for
your help over the years with Investment Analyst. John thinks that you
are 'God' with this software." Another client called that same week
for no particular reason except to thank us for offering such a "professional"
product. Yet a third client who had just purchased Analyst (with some uncertainty
because he was a novice with computers) wrote us to say "this software
is WONDERFUL !!!!"
Who Uses Investment Analyst
Today, our products are used by clients in all fifty states and several foreign countries. Members of all major real estate appraisal organizations use Analyst software. So do assessors, review appraisers, government agencies (federal, state and local), financial institutions, CPAs, insurance companies, real estate agents, developers, investors and property owners.
The Analyst software is flexibly designed to accommodate any income producing
property, including;
- Apartment buildings
- Office buildings
- Shopping centers
- Hotels, motels
- Businesses
- Industrial property
- Special purpose buildings
- Lot developments
- Condo projects
These programs are designed from scratch, in 32 bit native Windows code,
to give you the best possible performance and an ease of use not possible
with spreadsheets. They are stand-alone programs - not spreadsheet templates
or database templates.
Artificial Intelligence is built in. This
means that data entry is checked for consistency
and mathematical calculations are checked
for accuracy - as only can be done by experienced
software engineers working in conjunction
with valuation experts to design and implement
a stand-alone application. Our software is
smart. Not only does it check your numbers, but
it knows how to print them to make the most
attractive presentation. Whether your holding
period is 7 years or 30 years, our software
will make it look right. As we say in our
logo, "The Expert is in the Software."
Theory
Our programs use three different methods to calculate
value.
- An advanced derivative of the Mortgage Equity Technique that
utilizes the theory of the Ellwood Method.
- Internal Rate of Return analysis.
- Present Value analysis using the Discounted Cash Flow method
All three methods are based upon widely accepted
mathematical principles that have been used to analyze income producing investments for many years. Our programs
give the analyst a level of confidence and understanding that cannot be achieved using a single method.
