6-week valuation committee pilot; connected rent roll, lease events, operator health and valuation assumptions; the colleague flagged assumption inconsistencies.

02What it owns
Reports toFinance Director, with the investment team and asset managers consulted on every flagged assumption.
Owns
  • Source-linked valuation pack — rent roll, lease events and operator health joined per asset, with every figure traceable to Yardi, MRI, the SharePoint tracker or Power BI
  • Assumption check log — daily log of inconsistencies between the assumption set, the live rent roll, the lease event tracker and the operator overlay, posted in the valuation Teams channel
  • Rent roll reconciliation — Yardi and MRI rent rolls reconciled against the Excel working copy with a named owner on every disagreement
  • Committee dry-run pack — pre-committee draft circulated to the finance director and investment team with the open assumption questions surfaced
  • Reusable check rules — repeated assumption inconsistencies promoted into a shared rule library that runs against the next quarter's workbook automatically
Does not do
  • Valuation figure — never sets a value, yield, growth rate or discount rate; the external valuer signs the number
  • Committee decisions — surfaces inconsistencies and open questions; the finance director and investment team decide
  • Direct writes to Yardi or MRI — every correction stays as a flag for the analyst or asset manager to apply
Done looks like

The finance director walks into committee with a source-linked pack and a short list of assumption questions, not a stack of late corrections. The committee debates judgement, not arithmetic.
