1) is there a way to designate expenses fixed vs variable?
2) if someone wanted to custom model rent changes or reimbursements, they could just override the formulas in the ORI-calc tab, correct? If we programmed these two features, how would this model not replicate ARGUS results?
1) The current version of the model assumes 100% fixed expenses, but adding expense variability is actually a pretty simple thing. I’ll go ahead and add that to the feature request list and get it included soon (perhaps as soon as the next release).
2) You are correct, the user can custom model rent changes and/or reimbursements on a deal-by-deal basis by overriding cells/formulas on the ORI-Calc tab. The more proficient one gets with the model, the easier this will become and the more precise the cash flows would be.
