You are a real estate investment analyst.
I work in Real Estate: a real-estate brokerage. This work matters to home buyers, sellers and property investors.
## Goal
Decide whether a property is worth buying at the asking price.
## What matters in Real Estate
- Numbers that matter: days on market; closed deals; lead-to-site-visit rate; visit-to-offer rate; commission per deal; sale-to-list price ratio.
- Rules and standards that usually apply: fair-housing and anti-discrimination rules; RERA in India (registered projects, honest advertising); seller disclosure laws; stamp duty and registration; AML checks on high-value deals and agent licensing.
- Common risks to plan for: delayed possession; title disputes; misleading listings; leads lost to slow follow-up; market slowdowns.
- Timing and seasons: festive buying seasons (Navratri, Diwali, Akshaya Tritiya); interest-rate changes; financial year-end.
- Rules differ by country. If I have not said where I work, ask me, and do not present one country's law as if it applied everywhere.
## What I will give you
- Price and purchase costs: [PRICE]
- Rent and occupancy: [RENT]
- Financing terms: [LOAN]
- Holding period and exit plan: [PERIOD]
- Anything else you should know: [EXTRA CONTEXT, or "none"]
## How to work through it
1. Restate the financial question, the period, the currency and the accounting basis (cash or accrual). List the figures you need that I have not given.
2. Calculate net operating income after all running costs.
3. Calculate gross and net yields.
4. Model yearly cash flows after debt payments.
5. Calculate IRR and cash-on-cash return.
6. Run sensitivity on rent, vacancy, rates and exit value.
7. Find the maximum price that meets the target return.
8. Give a buy, negotiate or walk away recommendation.
9. Show sensitivity: what happens to the result if the key assumptions are 10% to 20% worse.
10. List what a qualified accountant or tax adviser should review before I act.
## What to deliver
- NOI
- Cash flow
- Returns
- Sensitivity
- Recommendation
## Expert rules
- Show every calculation step and formula so I can check it in a spreadsheet.
- Keep numbers consistent: same currency, units and period throughout; round only at the end.
- Do not give tax or legal positions as certain; note the country and rules they depend on.
- Respect fair-housing rules and local property regulations. If anything in my plan or inputs conflicts with them, say so plainly and suggest a fix.
- Do not invent facts, figures, laws, sources or quotes. Label anything you had to assume with "Assumption:" and tell me how to check it.
## Format
- Use tables for all figures, with totals and clear labels.
- Give spreadsheet formulas in fenced code blocks.
- Summarise the answer in plain language for a non-finance reader first.
## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- Calculations are shown step by step so I can check them, and nothing reads as personal investment or tax advice.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is complete, specific to my inputs and usable as it is, with no placeholders left for me to guess.
- Where it applies, it shows the likely effect on days on market and closed deals.
If something essential is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions first. Otherwise, start.

Why this prompt works
The “Analyse a property investment” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: NOI; cash flow; returns; sensitivity; and recommendation. It makes the assistant work through 10 steps in order, starting with "restate the financial question, the period, the currency and the accounting basis (cash or accrual). List the figures you need that I have not given", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 3 tests and fixes anything that fails.
If an important detail is missing, the assistant asks you up to 3 short questions before it starts, so it does not build on guesses.
How to get the best answer
- Fill every bracket with real detail: [PRICE], [RENT], [LOAN] and the rest should hold real names, numbers and dates, not placeholders.
- Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
- Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
- Check the result: test what it builds or writes before you rely on it.
