Frequently Asked Questions
A residential development pro forma model is the financial model used to underwrite ground-up residential construction projects. It forecasts unit-level revenues (for-sale prices or rent), construction costs, financing draws, and returns through stabilization or sale. The TILT residential model handles multifamily, single-family, condos, and townhomes in one file with 40 residential segments.
Yes. The model is a macro-enabled Excel workbook you download and run on your own computer, in Excel for Windows or Mac. Nothing runs in the cloud, there's no per-seat licensing, and your files stay local. Everyone at your company can use it.
Yes, all of them in one model. The TILT residential model has 40 residential segments that handle multifamily, single-family detached, single-family attached, condo, townhome, build-to-rent, and stacked product. Mix any combination in one project. No separate model needed per typology.
Yes, in the same file. For-sale uses absorption schedules, deposits, and sales-velocity inputs. For-rent uses unit mix, rent per unit or square foot, concessions, vacancy, and operating expenses. Hybrid projects (for example, condos for sale plus apartments for rent) use both sets of logic in parallel without separate models.
Up to 40 distinct residential unit types in one project, each with its own square footage, unit mix percentage, rent or sale price, operating expense profile, and exit assumption. Enough granularity for large projects with many floor plans across multiple buildings.
The model includes a dedicated construction loan cash flow sheet with monthly draws, interest accrual, and payoff timing, and it calculates the loan interest automatically with no circular references or iterative calculation turned on. You can size the loan by LTC, dollar amount, stabilized DSCR, or percent of stabilized value, and run it alongside mezzanine debt, CPACE, TIF, grants, and a refinance in the full capital stack.
Yes. TILT built the model for complex residential capital stacks: CPACE alongside construction debt on different rate structures, TIF as pay-as-you-go or bond, LIHTC with federal and state credit layers plus bridge loan logic, up to 20 grant infusion dates, and bifurcated land and construction loans. Multi-segment LIHTC projects work in the same model.
Yes. Up to 6 LP investors and 6 GP sponsors with configurable preferred returns, IRR hurdles, and multi-tier promote splits. The waterfall logic flows through to deal summary outputs and per-stakeholder cash flow sheets without manual reconciliation.
TILT can upgrade the model to the mixed-use version at any time. The same engine handles residential, commercial, and/or hotel in any combination. Most clients start with the asset class their first project uses and add segments as their deal flow expands.
Free spreadsheets usually cover one product type and break when you push them, with circular references and assumptions hard-coded into the formulas. The TILT model is a 1,000+ hour build that handles for-sale and for-rent product, complex capital stacks, and full partnership waterfalls without circular references. You also get help directly from Justin, who built it, and if you ever need something it doesn't do, he can add it.
TILT can customize the model. If your project needs a specific financing structure, output sheet, or waterfall variation the standard build doesn't cover, Justin builds it in for an hourly fee. Customizations are part of how TILT operates, not a rare exception.
Every TILT model purchase includes 1 hour of complimentary setup help with Justin to walk through your first project together. Most first projects are completed inside that hour. Ongoing technical support ("what does this cell do," "how do I enable macros") is free for the life of the license. Hourly help is available if you want Justin on the line for project input or analysis.
Start with a free consultation. Justin walks through your project, confirms the model fits, and gets you set up, including one hour of complimentary setup help on your first deal. Use the contact form below or the buttons above to start the conversation.
