  • Most Likely: NOI starts at $50,000 the first year and grows by 1% for the next 5 years. Resale price is $525,000 in year 5. Probability = 50%.
  • Optimistic: NOI starts at $50,000 the first year and grows by 3% for the next 5 years. Resale price is $575,000 in year 5. Probability = 25%.

Property B:

  • Pessimistic: NOI starts at $50,000 the first year and decreases by 2% for the next 5 years. Resale price is $475,000 in year 5. Probability = 25%.
  • Most Likely: NOI starts at $50,000 the first year and grows by 1% for the next 5 years. Resale price is $525,000 in year 5. Probability = 50%.
  • Optimistic: NOI starts at $50,000 the first year and grows by 5% for the next 5 years. Resale price is $600,000 in year 5. Probability = 25%.
