The signal compares total wealth at the horizon if you hold (equity + cash flow) vs sell now and reinvest the equity at your alternative return. Within 5% is borderline. Pro adds tax-adjusted, refinance and disposal scenarios.

Hold advantage at horizon
€25,327

Holding leaves you €25,327 ahead at 5 years versus selling and reinvesting at 6%/yr. The cash flow plus expected growth is doing more than your alternative would.

Red flag · Cash-on-equity is only 3.0% — well below what dividend equities or even cash deposits return today.

Next move · Pressure-test the growth assumption at 1% and 5%. If the hold case holds at 1%, the signal is robust.

How to interpret your results

  • Hold advantage in your favour means keeping the property beats selling and reinvesting. Negative means the freed-up equity earns more elsewhere.
  • Within 5% either way is borderline — model uncertainty alone covers that range, so treat it as a coin toss.
  • Cash-on-equity is the income return on the equity stuck in the property. A useful sanity check against alternative income-producing investments.
  • Capital growth assumption is the single most-leveraged input. Stress-test it both ways before betting on the outcome.

What this doesn’t include

Capital gains tax on disposal, refinance options that would change the equity equation, transaction-cost variation by country. Pro adds tax-adjusted scenarios.
