Specialized tools for real estate investment analysis, from profitability simulation to comparative performance analysis across multiple properties and scenarios.

Financial Analysis

From cashflow projections to actuarial indicators.

CapLens consolidates rent, expenses, loan payments and resale into a net cashflow, then derives the actuarial return over the entire holding period.

  • Monthly and annual net cashflow, after loan and after tax
  • IRR, NPV and cashflow over 30 years
  • Cash-on-cash, equity multiple and ROI on equity
  • Gross, net and net-net yield, and break-even point

  • Deductible loan interest, insurance and operating expenses
  • Component depreciation (structure, facade, installations, furniture)
  • Carried-forward losses and excess depreciation tracked over time
  • Multi-year sequential calculation for accurate projections

FAQ

Questions before modelling a project.

What is CapLens for?

CapLens is a real estate investment analysis platform. It reconstructs the financing plan, the financial accounting year by year and the actuarial indicators (IRR, NPV, cash-on-cash) over 30 years, so you can make decisions based on numbers rather than a gross yield.

How is the cashflow calculated?

The net cashflow integrates rent, expenses, property tax, loan payments and insurance, vacancy, works and applicable taxes. It is shown month by month and year by year, then discounted to derive the IRR and NPV.

What financial indicators does CapLens produce?

Gross, net and net-net yield, discounted cashflow, IRR, NPV, cash-on-cash, equity multiple, ROI, net wealth creation and break-even point, over the entire holding period.

Does CapLens handle apartment buildings?

Yes. The building simulation manages multiple units with their ownership shares and operating modes, consolidated in one set of operating accounts.

Can I compare several scenarios or properties?

Yes. You can rank multiple models on the same criteria (IRR, NPV, wealth creation, cashflow) and automatically compare performance across scenarios to find the best investment.

Can I generate professional reports?

Yes. CapLens exports detailed, customisable PDF and Word reports (logo, header, contact details), useful for presenting an analysis to a client, a partner or a bank.

Does the software replace an accountant?

No. CapLens applies financial calculation rules to model a project, but the results remain estimates to be validated with a qualified professional for your situation.
