Before you start

Data, sources, and access to prepare

  • A saved document
  • Property details and asking price
  • Current rent roll
  • Income and expense source data

Understand the full-analysis sequence

Financial Scope step showing Full Financials, Rent Roll Only, Cap Rate and NOI, and Skip Financials.
Start the analysis by selecting the scope that matches the assignment, property type, and pages required in the output.

Full Financials is the only scope that opens the rent roll, income and expense, and detailed valuation workflow together. The selected projection model changes the fields and final analysis page.

From source data to document pages

Each stage depends on the saved inputs before it. Review the generated document only after the wizard totals are correct.

Prepare the source package

Collect before entering data

  • Tenant or unit roster with rent basis
  • Vacancy or loss assumptions
  • Reimbursement amounts and lease terms when applicable
  • Other income and operating expense statement
  • Analysis period, debt, reserve, and exit assumptions
  • Sales and rental comparable support when those pages are included

No generic spreadsheet import

The standard financial workflow does not import a rent roll, income statement, or comparable spreadsheet. Enter and verify the data in the wizard.

Full analysis steps

  1. 1

    Choose Full Financials

    Financial Scope

    Select Full Financials.

    Expected result: The scope card is selected.

    If this does not happen: If the choice is unavailable, confirm the document and property type support it. BOV still supports Full Financials, while some custom templates replace this workflow.

  2. 2

    Continue to the rent roll

    Financial Scope > Continue

    Select Continue.

    Expected result: Rent Roll becomes the next financial step.

    If this does not happen: Return to Financial Scope if the wizard opens an unexpected path.

  3. 3

    Choose the projection

    Rent Roll, projection selector

    Select Multi-Year Cash Flow or Pro Forma.

    Expected result: The projection card is highlighted.

    If this does not happen: Record important existing values before changing an established model.

  4. 4

    Choose the row layout

    Rent Roll, layout selector

    Select Unit-by-Unit or Unit Mix where offered.

    Expected result: The table changes to the columns for that model and layout.

    If this does not happen: Review the confirmation carefully if the document already has saved rows.

  5. 5

    Add an occupied or vacant row

    Rent Roll toolbar

    Select the applicable add-row control.

    Expected result: The row detail editor opens.

    If this does not happen: Confirm a rent-roll type is selected if add controls are absent.

  6. 6

    Complete the rent-roll row

    Rent Roll detail editor

    Enter rent in the displayed basis plus applicable lease and reimbursement fields.

    Expected result: Calculated monthly and annual totals appear after save.

    If this does not happen: Correct the basis or source field if the total is implausible.

  7. 7

    Enter other income and expenses

    Income & Expenses

    Complete the displayed cash-flow or pro-forma statement rows.

    Expected result: The saved statement supplies the NOI calculation.

    If this does not happen: If a row is missing, add it. If a suggested property-tax value is wrong, replace it with the verified source amount.

  8. 8

    Review default expenses

    Income & Expenses > Operating Expenses

    Compare every default expense row with the approved source.

    Expected result: Only applicable default rows remain in the statement.

    If this does not happen: Edit or remove a default row that does not apply.

  9. 9

    Set cash-flow assumptions

    Valuation > Multi-Year Cash Flow

    Enter the analysis, vacancy, exit, financing, and reserve assumptions.

    Expected result: The cash-flow preview recalculates from saved inputs.

    If this does not happen: If the cash-flow request fails, save the assumptions panel and retry.

  10. 10

    Review the pro-forma comparison

    Valuation > Pro Forma

    Inspect in-place NOI, pro-forma NOI, financing, and reserves.

    Expected result: The comparison reflects the saved current and stabilized cases.

    If this does not happen: Return to Income & Expenses if either NOI does not match the approved case.

  11. 11

    Review generated pages

    Review & Customize

    Inspect every financial page, metric, footnote, and page title before export.

    Expected result: Wizard totals and document totals agree.

    If this does not happen: Return to the source wizard step, correct the input, and reopen review if a number is unexpected.

Reconcile before publishing

Financial review

  • Rent roll annual totals match the source roster
  • Vacancy rows and vacancy factor are not being confused
  • Reimbursements use the intended annual or area basis
  • In-place EGI, expenses, and NOI reconcile
  • Year 1 growth is intentionally different from In-Place
  • Debt and reserve assumptions use the intended units
  • Exit value uses the selected exit-year NOI and cap rate
  • Generated pages match the selected financial scope

Common blockers

A financial step is missing

Likely cause: The current scope, property type, document type, or custom template excludes it.

  1. Return to Financial Scope with Change Financial Scope.
  2. Confirm the selected property type and document package.
  3. Use the simplified valuation path if that is the intended assignment.
The PDF total differs from the source document

Likely cause: A rent basis, vacancy, reimbursement, or pro-forma field may have been interpreted differently.

  1. Reconcile row-level annual amounts first.
  2. Then reconcile EGI, total expenses, and NOI.
  3. Regenerate only after the wizard totals are correct.
