Building ROI FAQ
How does this ROI calculator estimate value?
It uses your assumed appreciation rate and compares projected ownership outcomes against lease spend over a 10-year period.
Is ROI guaranteed when buying a building?
No. Property values and business performance change over time. Use this as a planning model, not an investment guarantee.
Should I compare ROI and break-even together?
Yes. Break-even helps with timing, while ROI helps with long-term value potential.
