Designed for Appraisers
But, more than any other professional, Investment Analyst is used by the valuation pros - appraisers. Members of all major appraisal organizations use our products - MAIs, SRAs, CCIMs, SRPAs, ASAs, IFAs.
Investment Analyst has been around since 1987. It is not a set of spreadsheet templates. The software is written from
scratch to give you the best performance and the built in intelligence
to perform good income analyses. Each year since 1987, Analyst has been improved upon. And each design
improvement was made with the appraiser in mind. Why? Because when a fee
appraiser uses Analyst for valuations that are relied upon for lending
decisions, in court proceedings between municipalities and owners, in estate
valuations, etc., the appraiser needs the best. And when we design our
software to meet an appraiser's stringent requirements, other professionals
will recognize its value too.

Investment Analyst is the income analysis software used by the pros - Real
estate appraisers, Bankers, Assessors, and agents. Analyst is dedicated
"real" software (not a spreadsheet template) that is designed
to analyze all of the facets of a real estate investment. Don't waste your
money on spreadsheet based "templates." If you are serious about
your work, you need serious software to assist you. Analyst is serious
software that does all necessary calculations and prepares organized reports
that document income, expenses, downpayments, and cash flows. These reports
are easy to understand and can be "taken to the bank."
Most important, Investment Analyst develops the "capitalization rate." using an advanced derivative of the Mortgage Equity Technique. This rate is critical to a good analysis and you cannot just pull it out of thin air. The rate varies, depending upon many factors - all of which Investment Analyst takes into account. These factors include the investor's required rate of return, the interest rate on a mortgage, projected growth rates in income and expenses, and more.
Investment Analyst allows you to easily do "what if" analysis. What if future income and expenses grow at 1%, 2%, 3% ? What if the mortgage rate is 7%, or 8%, or 9% ? What happens if real estate taxes are $10,000 per year instead of $6,500 per year? With Analyst, it is easy to change any assumption in the pro-forma and instantly know its effect upon value. This is critical to making good real estate investment decisions.
