What this calculator estimates

Compare total investor distributions with contributed equity. It combines the inputs below to produce Equity multiple. Every assumption remains editable so the estimate can reflect the property, financing and location being evaluated.

Worked example

Using the displayed sample assumptions, the calculator produces 1.90x. This is an illustration, not a market quote. Change one input at a time to understand what drives the result.

Inputs and assumptions

• Total equity contributed — sample input: 500000 currency units
• Operating cash distributions — sample input: 250000 currency units
• Refinance distributions — optional — sample input: 100000 currency units
• Net sale distributions — sample input: 600000 currency units

How to interpret the result

Run downside, expected and upside cases before relying on the output. Compare a conservative case with an expected case and keep a record of the assumptions used.

Common mistake to avoid

Do not assume exit value, financing and income forecasts are certain. Local definitions, taxes, lending practices and measurement requirements can materially change the result.
