Q

A property is leased for 5 years at a gross rental of $480,000 per annum with the tenant responsible for increases in outgoing only.

Base date outgoings were $100,000 p.a.

Rent is paid monthly in advance and there is 3 years remaining on the lease.

The current market rental value is $500,000 per annum net.

Determine the lessee’s interest in the property adopting a nominal discount rate of 6%.

NOTE: Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar

A

Between 330,353 and 330,355

ANSWER

$500,000 less ($480,000 G - $100,000 OG’s) = $120,000 Profit Rent
PMT = $120,000 / 12 = $10,000 pcm
N = 3 x 12 = 36
I = 6/12 = 0.5
BGN MODE

PV = $330,353.71

Q

A property is leased for 8 years at a gross rental of $600,000 per annum with the tenant responsible for increases in outgoing only. Base date outgoings were $120,000 p.a.

Rent is paid monthly in advance and there is 4 years remaining on the lease.

The current market rental value is $680,000 per annum net.

Capitalisation and Discount rate is 6% p.a (nominal)

Determine the lessors’s interest in the property using the TERM & REVERSION approach.

NOTE: Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar

A

Between 10,688,789 and 10,688,791

ANSWER

TERM (or PV OF LEASE RENTAL)

$600,000 GR - $120,000 OG’S = $480,000 PMT

$480,000 / 12 = $40,000 pcm = PMT

N = 4 X 12 = 48 I = 6/12 BGN MODE PV = $ 1,711,728.78

ADD

UNADJUSTED MARKET VALUE (OR CORE VALUE)

Current Market Net Rental = $ 680,000

Capitalised at 6% = $11,333,333.33

DEFERRED FOR 4 YEARS

FV $ 11,333,333.33, N = 4, I = 6 PV = $ 8,977,061.51

                                   LESSORS INTEREST          $ 10,688,790.29

Q

A life tenancy has been willed within residential estate to the long-term housekeeper. The housekeeper is 60 years old. Actuarial life tables estimate the housekeeper would have around 27 years to live. The life tenancy was willed on the basis that the tenant is responsible for annual outgoings ($ 8,000 p.a). The gross market rental value of the property is $ 44,000 p.a.

Calculate the life tenant’s interest based on monthly cash flows in advance and adopting a nominal annual discount rate of 3.6%.

NOTE: Round your answer to the nearest $1000.

A

Between 623,000 and 623,000

ANSWER

$44,000 - $8,000 = $36,000 / 12 = $ 3,000 per month PMT (BGN Mode)
N = 27 x 12 = 324
I = 3.6 / 12 = 0.03

PV = $622,986

Q

The freehold value, in possession, of a commercial property is assessed at $ 4,000,000.

However, the property is subject to an existing lease at less than market rental value.

As such a lessee’s interest has been assessed at $ 600,000.

The Lessors interest in the same property has been assessed at $ 3,000,000

What is the Lessee’s interest in any ‘Marriage Value’ calculated on an equal half share basis?

A

Between 200,000 and 200,000

ANSWER

$4,000,000 – ($3,000,000 +$600,000) = $400,000 MARRIAGE VALUE
Lessee’s Interest = 50% x $400,000 = $200,000

A

Between 66,666 and 66,668

ANSWER

$4,000,000 – ($3,000,000 +$600,000) = $400,000 MARRIAGE VALUE

Lessee’s interest in Marriage Value = $600,000 / $3,600,000 = 16.67%

16.67% x $400,000 = $66,667

The current freehold value of the property, in possession, is estimated at $ 40,000,000.

Calculate the remainderman’s interest adopting an effective annual discount rate of 2% p.a

NOTE: Round your answer to the nearest $1000.

Q

Use the ‘bonus/shortfall’ approach and indicate the “core value of the property.

Your research indicates the current market rent to be $250,000 pa net and that an equivalent yield of 9.5% pa would be appropriate.

Lease Term: 10 years from 4th April, 2017

Rent Review: 3 yearly to market

Initial Lease Rent: $200,000 per annum net from 4th April, 2017

Most Recent Review: $230,000 per annum net from 4th April, 2020

Outgoings: Fully paid by tenant

Valuation Date: 4th April, 2021

A

“Core Value” is the market rent capitalised without any adjustment for ‘bonus’ or ‘shortfall’ due to vacancies, capital expenditure, surplus rent, next rent reviews, etc.

Hence, market rent of $250,000 capitalised at 9.5% = $2,631,579

Q

The value of the following property using the “Term & Reversion” method is $2,365,289

Lease term: 8 years from 01/04/17

Rent review: 3 yearly to market

Initial lease rent: $200,000 pa annually in arrears

Most recent rent review: $220,000 pa effective from 01/04/20

Outgoings: Fully paid by tenant

Valuation date: 01/04/21

Research indicates the current market rent is $240,000 pa and that an equivalent yield of 10% is appropriate for this property

What would be the value of the property if the “Bonus / Shortfall” method was used?

A

Both “Bonus/Shortfall” and “Term & Reversion” will produce a same value. So the correct answer is a value equal to $2,365,289 without any calculation.

Q

You are assessing a property where market rent is $50,000 per annum net.
Passing rent is $35,000 per annum, under the current lease which has 2 years to run.
The appropriate rate of interest is 9.5% effective.

Calculate:
A. The value of the lessee’s interest?
B. The value of the property subject to the lease (lessor’s interest), using
both the Shortfall/Bonus method
C. The value of the property subject to the lease (lessor’s interest), using
both the Term and Reversion Method

A

A. Lessee’s Interest
N = 2 I = 9.5 PMT = 15,000 FV = 0
COMP PV = $26,208.80

B. Lessor’s Interest

Shortfall/Bonus Method

Step 1: Freehold Value of Property
*Market Rent: $50,000 net
*Capitalisation Rate: 9.5%
*Market Value (Core Value) Value)= 50,000 /9.5% = $526,315.79

Step 2: Value of Tenants Interest
*Shortfall = 50,000-35,000 = 15,000 p.a.
* PV of shortfall
N = 2 I = 9.5 PMT = 15,000 FV = 0; COMP PV = $26,208.80
Benefit to lessee of $26,208.80 and shortfall to lessor of $26,208.80

Step 3: Market value of property subject to Lease
* Adjusted Market value of property
= 526,315.79 26,208.80

C. Lessor’s Interest
Term and Reversion Method
Step 1: Value of the Term
* N = 2 I = 9.5 PMT = 35,000 FV = 0
* PV = $61,153.85
Step 2: Present Value of the Reversion
* Market Rent: $50,000 p.a. net
* Capitalisation Rate: 9.5%
* Market Value (Core Value) Value)= 50,000 / 9.5% = $526,315.79
* Discount back 2 years to period 0

  • PV of Reversion
    N = 2 I = 9.5 PMT = 0 FV = 526,315.79
    PV = $438,953.14

Step 3: Market value of property subject to Lease
* Adjusted Market value of property
= 61,153.85 + 438,953.14
= $500,106.99

Q

Consider the following:
* A site is leased to a head lessee at a market ground rent of $200,000 pa net.
* The head lessee develops the site and sub leases the property at $500,000 p.a. net which is $50,000 p.a. net below market rent.
* The lease has 32 years left to run. The head lessee’s interest rate is 9% p.a.
*
The sub lessee interest rate is 8% p.a.

What is the head lesssee’s interest? What is the sub-lessee’s interest?

A

What is the head lessee’s interest?

Income from sub lessee $500,000
Less: Ground Rent ($200,000)
Net Income $300,000 p.a.
* N = 32 / I = 9 / PMT = 300,000
* PV = $3,121,872

Sub Lessee’s Interest
Market Rent $550,000
Less: Lease Rent ($500,000)
Profit Rent $50,000 p.a.
* N = 32 / I = 8 / PMT = 50,000
* PV = $571,750

Note: The discount rates used will need to be analysed from both market transactions and in relation to other classes or types of tenants.

Q

What is the Lessor’s and Lessee’s Share of the Marriage Value on an Interest Held basis?

Freehold Value $10,000,000
Lessor’s Interest $6,000,000
Lessee’s Interest $3,000,000

A

Lessor’s Interest
$6,000,000 = 66.67% of $9,000,000

Lessee’s Interest
$3,000,000 = 33.33% of $9,000,000

Lessor’s Share:
On an interest held basis: $1,000,000 x 66.67% = $666,667

Lessee’s Share:
On an interest held basis: $1,000,000 x 33.33% = $333,333

Q

How is the head lessee’s interest calculated?

A

PV of the net income stream for the period of the term certain of the lease.

To reflect the leasehold tenure, the discount rate should be higher than that used to calculate the freehold value. If different discount rates
are used to calculate various component interests, the sum of the various interests will not equal the freehold value. (Refer to Marriage Value)
