Project assessment: sales vs. rental scenario

Calculate your new build's sales price and market rent at once. Build the unit plan, add project economics, and compare sale, sale to investor and own rental side by side via exit strategies.

Updated 6 June 2026

Project assessment runs your new build down two paths at once: what the units can sell for, and what they can be rented out for. You build a unit plan, layer your project economics on top, and get sales price, market rent and exit strategies side by side — so you can see whether selling or renting gives the better return.

1Start the project

Open Project assessment in the left sidebar under Development, and search the address or cadastral parcel:

Search address or cadastral parcel...

Earlier projects sit ready on the front page under Recently assessed and Saved, so you can return to the same location and unit plan.

Note

Estimates are calibrated against real, registered trades in the area and update continuously. They are indicative and do not replace a professional valuation.

2Build the unit plan

Under Unit plan you create one row per unit type in the project. For each row you set:

Row type

Count · Sqm/unit · Floor · Property type · Quality level

  • Property typeVilla Townhouse Apartment Summer house
  • Quality levelStandard Above standard Luxury

Click Add row type to add more unit types, and Calculate project once the plan is ready.

3Read the sales scenario

At the top you see Total sales price for the whole project together with the average sqm price. The result is broken down per row type with price per unit, sqm price and a Confidence score, so you can see how robust the basis is for each unit type.

Total sales price
Whole project
kr/m² avg.
Average
Confidence
Per row type
Tip

If a row type gets low confidence or the Limited data basis warning, adjust sqm or floor — it moves the row into a segment with more comparable trades.

4Set up the rental

Under Rental plan Arcili automatically looks up market rent per unit type and shows Kr/m²/yr and Total annual rent for each row. To use your own level, just click the amount and type it in — the field is marked as edited manually.

Rental plan

Townhouse · 110 m² — Market rate 1,450 kr/m² Use market rate

Click the market rate again (↺ Reset to market rate) to return to the automatic estimate. In Project economics you can also choose Use market rent under Rental case, so the rent in the calculation follows the area's level.

5Layer on the project economics

Open Project economics and fill in the assumptions, so both sale and rental are calculated with full costs:

Project economics

Land price (total) · Build cost/m² · Consulting · Financing Sales costs · Connection fees · Contingency · Project duration

Click Show details for discount rate and additional costs. You get Total investment, Profit, Margin, ROI and NPV — plus a Sensitivity analysis showing what happens if sales price, build cost or finance rate changes.

6Compare sale against rental

Once economics are filled in, Exit strategies appears with three paths side by side:

Sell units
Sale
Profit · margin · ROI
Sell to investor
Investor
Price · yield req.
Keep & rent out
Rent
Net and gross yield

The top simultaneously shows Sales price to investor, NOI annual and Investor yield, so you can directly weigh selling off the units against a combined sale to an investor or against keeping and renting yourself. Once the picture is clear, click Download report and choose the variant — Combined, Sale or Rental — plus language.
