Abstract

Develops and compares a number of alternative discounted cash flow (DCF) approaches to the appraisal of over-rented property. The transparent nature of DCF techniques makes them more suitable than traditional techniques for the appraisal of over-rented property, but the different DCF approaches reveal the essential risk characteristics of over-rented property, including option characteristics similar to those of convertible bonds. This suggests that even more complex appraisal techniques used in other investment markets may be more appropriate.
