Before you start

Data, sources, and access to prepare

  • A multi-property Offering Memorandum
  • Completed building records
  • Rent roll and operating statement separated by building

Use one model with building ownership

Income and Expenses workspace for a multi-property document and its combined analysis.
Enter property-level financial data and verify the combined portfolio statement without inventing unsupported building selectors.

Portfolio financial ownership

The model choice is document-wide, while most rows belong to a building.

Understand the combined summary

  • Gross Potential Rent includes linked tenant and vacancy rent for each building.
  • Explicit vacancy and the document-level vacancy factor both affect Portfolio Financial Summary when configured.
  • Tenant reimbursements and building additional income add to EGI.
  • Building operating expenses subtract from EGI to produce building NOI.
  • Portfolio totals sum all building results after any unlinked pool allocation.
  • Campus mode consolidates the summary to one Total column, while a portfolio keeps per-building columns when space permits.
  • Portfolios with more than six buildings use a transposed layout.

No general Building Selector for legacy financial rows

The current Portfolio-wide income and expense area exposes unlinked rows but does not provide a reassignment selector. Resolve ownership before entry whenever possible and document any unavoidable allocation.

Enter and reconcile by building

Portfolio financial steps

  1. 1

    Complete Buildings first

    Buildings & Properties

    Verify every building name, type, address, and order.

    Expected result: The financial accordions have reliable owners and labels.

    If this does not happen: Return here before financial entry if a record is missing.

  2. 2

    Choose the shared rent-roll model

    Rent Roll, model selector

    Select the one Cash Flow or Pro Forma and Unit-by-Unit or Unit Mix structure used by the document.

    Expected result: All building accordions use the selected type with property-specific columns.

    If this does not happen: The model cannot vary by building. Choose the best common representation.

  3. 3

    Open one building rent roll

    Rent Roll building accordions

    Expand the intended building.

    Expected result: The active accordion identifies the building that will own new rows.

    If this does not happen: Compare the active accordion name before adding data.

  4. 4

    Enter the building rent roll

    Expanded Rent Roll building accordion

    Add only that building’s tenants, vacancies, units, rooms, or pads.

    Expected result: The building summary reconciles and Portfolio Total updates.

    If this does not happen: Remove a row immediately if it was added under the wrong building.

  5. 5

    Inspect unassigned rent rows

    Rent Roll, unassigned rows warning

    Review every legacy row without building ownership.

    Expected result: Each unassigned row is identified as required or invalid.

    If this does not happen: Compare uncertain rows with the approved source before changing them.

  6. 6

    Remove an invalid unassigned row

    Rent Roll, unassigned rows warning

    Delete one row confirmed to be invalid.

    Expected result: The invalid orphan row no longer affects the portfolio.

    If this does not happen: The current area does not reassign rows. Re-enter required data under the correct building instead of deleting it.

  7. 7

    Enter building statements

    Income & Expenses building accordions

    Add additional income and expenses for each building in the displayed model columns.

    Expected result: Building statement totals reconcile.

    If this does not happen: Expect a newly added expense category to appear as zero in sibling buildings. Complete or leave intentional zero values.

  8. 8

    Review Portfolio-wide rows

    Income & Expenses, Portfolio-wide

    Compare every unlinked income and expense row with the approved source.

    Expected result: Any final allocation is intentional and documented.

    If this does not happen: There is no current reassignment control. Re-enter under buildings and remove the unlinked row only when safe.

  9. 9

    Verify the combined analysis

    Valuation and Review & Customize

    Compare building totals, Portfolio Total, vacancy, EGI, expenses, and NOI across wizard and output.

    Expected result: The combined model reconciles.

    If this does not happen: Trace the first difference to a building row or legacy allocation.

Resolve portfolio financial issues

Different buildings need different rent-roll types

Likely cause: The current type is document-wide.

  1. Choose the common model that best fits the deliverable.
  2. Use property-specific labels within each accordion.
  3. Explain exceptions in notes.
A row is unassigned

Likely cause: It may be legacy document-level data or created before the building model existed.

  1. Identify its correct owner from source data.
  2. Re-enter it under the building if necessary.
  3. Remove the unlinked row only after verifying totals.
A portfolio total differs from the sum expected

Likely cause: Unlinked rows, explicit vacancy, or the vacancy-factor assumption may be included.

  1. Check Portfolio-wide rows.
  2. Check vacancy records by building.
  3. Check the document vacancy factor.
  4. Recalculate EGI and NOI.
