The Academy / learning outcomes
Understand what a lease promises, what an income figure leaves out, and which questions need a professional answer.
Curriculum objectives — individual progress and investment outcomes vary. Education does not guarantee an acquisition or return.
A process to practise
Questions / exercises / principles
Analysis · Learning objective
What does the quoted yield leave out?
Build a comparison of income, costs and vacancy assumptions.
A useful analysis distinguishes gross income from the costs and risks the owner retains. Work through the assumptions before deciding whether an advertised return is meaningful.
Due diligence · Learning objective
Who is responsible when something goes wrong?
Prepare questions about tenant obligations, reviews and lease expiry.
A lease deserves more than a glance at its headline term. Learn what to ask about outgoings, make-good provisions and tenant strength, then seek professional review of the actual documents.
Risk · Learning objective
What changes if the optimistic case does not happen?
Compare a base case with vacancy, cost and finance scenarios.
Use a written brief and a repeatable review process. The aim is a clearer decision, including when to pause or walk away, rather than a promised purchase or return.
