Frequently Asked Questions

An off-plan cashflow projection shows month-by-month money flows from booking to handover and beyond. It includes developer payments, mortgage drawdowns, DLD fees, service charges, furnishing costs, and rental income, helping you identify months with high cash requirements.
High liquidity months occur when multiple large payments coincide (e.g., handover payment + DLD fees + mortgage setup + furnishing). Identifying these in advance lets you plan liquidity and avoid last-minute financing issues.
The calculator uses your input yield percentage and includes a realistic rent-up period. We recommend conservative assumptions (6-8% yield for most areas) and factoring 2-3 months for tenant acquisition post-handover.
Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) measures rental income versus mortgage payments. Banks typically require DSCR > 1.25. If your DSCR is too low, the property may not qualify for mortgage refinancing.

Use the Advanced Options section to add delay buffers (typically 3-6 months for Dubai). This extends your negative cashflow period and helps you plan for extended holding costs.
