Your assumptions, your line items, and the outputs your committee already reads.

Illustrative model surface with synthetic data. Calculations follow your configured workbook; this preview is not interactive.

One process, three chapters

From deal room to investment case

Upload documents in the platform or forward them to Cole when email is easier. Keep the inputs, model and review together in one deal record.

IInitial screening

A structured deal, ready to review.

Organize the rent roll, operating statements and leases. Extract the relevant fields, check them against your criteria and flag missing or uncertain inputs.

IIPro forma

Your model. Your assumptions.

Map inputs into your acquisition workbook. Review the assumptions and compare occupancy, financing or exit scenarios using your model’s calculation logic.

IIIInvestment committee

Reviewed analysis becomes decision material.

Prepare the memo, teaser or investor presentation from the reviewed case. Your team checks the assumptions and evidence before sharing or making a decision.

Why it is auditable

Keep the source beside the number

Extracted fields retain a document and page reference so your team can check the inputs. Missing or uncertain data stays visible before the case is approved.

Apply the workflow

How do deal documents become inputs in your underwriting workbook?

NextAutomation’s underwriting workflow connects source documents, analyst review and the acquisition model. Map each proposed input to the cell or schedule it belongs to, keep the source reference and approve changes before using the resulting scenario.

Source schedules linked to highlighted workbook inputs and two underwriting scenarios.
  1. 01Trace the source
  2. 02Approve the input
  3. 03Recalculate the scenario

Keep the path from the original document to the accepted model input visible.

InputMapping decisionReview output
Rent rollMatch unit or suite identity and reporting dateReconciled occupancy and rent schedule, with missing rows flagged.
Operating statementMatch account categories and the modeled periodSource totals, approved adjustments and unresolved differences.
Debt termsDistinguish indicative assumptions from accepted termsFinancing scenario with a stated basis and version.
Investment memoUse the reviewed model and its accepted assumptionsRecommendation supported by the model, with remaining questions visible.

For a fictional file, the rent roll is dated September while the T-12 ends in August. Preserve both dates. Reconcile the period difference before treating a change in rent as growth, and keep any provisional explanation outside the accepted input column.

Put the review process through a worked example

After accepting the inputs, run the Excel formula-change exercise to expose hardcoded outputs and verify the expected effect of a changed assumption.

Reproduce the NOI bridge with the T-12 adjustment register exercise and inspect accepted changes separately from the pending tax scenario.

Start with the rent-roll reconciliation practice packet to test period matching, duplicate rows and unsupported explanations.

The underwriting model-builder pack organizes accepted inputs and unresolved assumptions around the model handoff.

Watch the investment committee memo walkthrough for a public example of the downstream document workflow.

Questions about underwriting

Do we have to change our model?

No. We map the relevant deal-room fields to your existing workbook and preserve your firm’s assumptions and calculation logic. The mapping and supported formats are agreed during setup.

Can we compare scenarios?

Yes. Review changes to occupancy, financing, exit assumptions or other drivers supported by your configured model. Calculations follow that model; the illustration on this page is not an interactive calculator.

What can it read?

Rent rolls, T12 operating statements, leases, offering memoranda and related deal documents in supported PDF, XLSX and DOCX formats. Scans and uncertain extractions are flagged for review.

How does Cole work over email?

With the email workflow configured, forward the deal documents to Cole. The agent organizes the inputs, updates underwriting and the platform’s pipeline with the attached documents, then replies with a summary for your review.

Does it make the investment decision?

No. It prepares the inputs and investment case. Your team reviews the evidence, approves the assumptions and makes the decision.

Can we start with underwriting only?

Yes. Start with this workflow and connect sourcing or other modules later. The proof of concept is $3,000 for two weeks on your own deal and model, credited toward the build.

See it run on one of your own deals.
