Section 1 — What This Site Is

H2: What Is CommercialCalc?

CommercialCalc is a free suite of commercial real estate calculators and guides built for US investors, brokers, lenders, and business owners.

Every tool on this site is completely free. No email required. No signup wall. No lead generation funnel. You enter your numbers and get your result immediately — with a branded PDF report you can download and keep.

The site covers the core metrics every commercial real estate professional needs:

  • Cap rate, NOI, and DSCR for property analysis and loan underwriting
  • Commercial mortgage payments and debt yield for financing decisions
  • NNN lease cost breakdowns for tenants and landlords
  • 1031 exchange deadlines for tax-deferred exchanges
  • IRR and equity multiple for investment return analysis

Section 2 — Why We Built This

H2: Why We Built This

Most CRE calculator tools online are lead generation funnels. You enter your numbers, get a teaser result, and then a form appears asking for your name, email, and phone number before you can see the full calculation.

We built CommercialCalc differently. Every result is shown immediately, completely, with no gate. The PDF download is free. The print function is free. There is no premium tier.

Commercial real estate decisions involve significant capital. The people making those decisions deserve accurate tools that respect their time — not forms designed to harvest contact information for a sales team.

Section 3 — Accuracy

H2: Formula Accuracy and Standards

Every calculator on this site uses formulas verified against US commercial real estate industry standards:

  • DSCR calculations match Fannie Mae and conventional lender requirements (1.25x minimum)
  • Cap rate benchmarks are sourced from CBRE's H2 2025 Cap Rate Survey
  • Debt yield thresholds reflect current CMBS and institutional lender standards
  • 1031 exchange deadlines follow IRS Section 1031 and Revenue Procedure 2008-16
  • Commercial lease calculations reflect standard US NNN lease structures

All formulas are tested against known inputs before publishing. If you find a calculation error, use the contact page to report it and we will fix it immediately.

Section 4 — Disclaimer
