You are to present an investment analysis of a new small income-producing property for sale to a potential investor. The asking price for the property is $8.5 million. You determine that the building was worth $7.225 million and could be depreciated over 39 years (use 1/39 per year). NOIs are estimated to be $901,375 for year 1, $900,681 for year 2, $899,962 for year 3, $943,700 for year 4, $961,855 for year 5 and expected to increase by 3.16% thereafter. A fully amortizing 70 percent loan can be obtained at 10 percent interest for 20 years (total annual payments will be monthly payments * 12). The property is expected to be sold for $9,360,805 after 5 years. Capital gains from price appreciation will be taxed at 15 percent and depreciation recapture will be taxed at 25 percent. Your ordinary income will be taxed at 35 percent. Assume that there are no selling costs and the equity discount rate is 13%.
