underwrite_property
Underwrite a commercial property purchase
Runs the site's acquisition underwriting model on one commercial property: NOI, going-in cap rate, yield on cost, loan, equity, DSCR, debt yield, cash-on-cash, break-even occupancy, levered and unlevered IRR, equity multiple, transfer tax, and the most you can pay to reach a target levered IRR. The loan rate defaults to today's 10-year Treasury plus 204 bp.

Check whether a purchase will finance
Checks a commercial property purchase (price, NOI, property type, owner-occupied or not, cash available) against three loan profiles: CBRE Q2 2026 average permanent loan, Freddie Mac agency multifamily, and SBA 504.
