ONE TASK, WORKED THROUGH

Same lease. Different breakpoint. Why?

You are reconciling a percentage-rent calculation between two models. Matching the headline rent has not reconciled the breakpoint.

YOU ASK

My natural breakpoint differs between ARGUS Enterprise and Valuation DCF. The base rent matches. What am I missing?

propfessor.Companion example

Compare the rent components used in the breakpoint, not just the base rent. In the documented Enterprise 10.1 calculation, base rent, fixed steps and CPI contribute. Valuation DCF lets you select the components. The models can therefore use different rent totals even when the base rent matches.

See the steps and a follow-up question
  1. Identify the components feeding the natural breakpoint in each model.
  2. Check whether fixed steps and CPI have been included on both sides. Align the assumptions only where the lease and your modelling approach support it.
  3. Recalculate and reconcile the breakpoint again. This check does not establish that every other lease assumption matches.

Will changing the components reconcile the whole valuation?

Not necessarily. This diagnoses one difference. Review the remaining lease and valuation assumptions separately, and confirm the rules in your software release.

WHAT YOU CAN DO NEXT

You have a specific assumption to reconcile before changing the rent itself.

KEEP LEARNING AS YOU WORK

You do not have to get it in one answer.

Ask for the steps. Show what you see. Follow up on the result. Here are ways to continue this task.

  1. How do I find which rent components feed this breakpoint?
  2. Can you help me compare the assumptions in these two screenshots?
  3. What else should I reconcile before explaining the valuation difference?

Use your own language. Include your version and what you want to do, or share a cropped screenshot with confidential details removed. Each follow-up uses a question from your allowance.

WHEN YOU GET STUCK

Work through a specific problem.

ARGUS Enterprise

How do I give a tenant six months of free rent without also giving away the recoveries?

ARGUS Enterprise

My recoveries look too high. Could an expense be included both on its own and inside a group?
