📐 Quantitative Methodology: How Net Cash-on-Cash ROI is Computed
Gross rental yields advertised by developers rarely tell the full story. Our engine deducts localized friction costs to isolate true net performance:
🏗️ Off-Plan IRR vs. Ready Cashflow
Analyzing pre-construction launches in Dubai Creek, Lusail, or Batumi requires modeling milestone schedules alongside immediate yield:
- Construction Equity Lift: 15%–35% capital appreciation curve between launch and key handover.
- Post-Handover Leverage: Developer payment plans (e.g., 60/40) where tenant rent covers final installments.
- Secondary Market Liquidity: Scored 1–10 based on historical time-to-exit for foreign sellers.
🏖️ Short-Term Airbnb vs. Corporate Leases
Comparing a high-turnover holiday villa in Phuket or Bodrum against an executive apartment in Riyadh KAFD factors in:
- Operational Drag: Deducting 18%–25% turnkey holiday-home management commissions and utility overhead.
- Seasonality Smoothing: Weighting peak high-season ADR against shoulder-month occupancy dips.
- Regulatory Licensing: Tracking municipal Holiday Home permits (DTCM in Dubai, AMA numbers in Greece).
🏛️ Cross-Border Tax & Residency Thresholds
Institutional capital allocation across EU Golden Visas and GCC tax havens accounts for statutory friction:
- Acquisition Costs: Dubai 4% DLD fee, Saudi 5% RETT, and European progressive stamp duties/VAT.
- 2026 Visa Arbitrage: Navigating Greece’s €250k/€400k/€800k tiers vs. the UAE’s AED 2M ($545k) 10-year Golden Visa.
- Repatriation & CGT: Comparing 0% Capital Gains Tax hubs against European withholding structures.
