Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for evaluating a property using stochastic vacancy information. According to one embodiment, a first stochastic value associated with a property is determined. For example, an interest rate or a market rent associated with the property may be determined. A second stochastic value, associated with vacancy information, is also determined. The first and second stochastic values are then used to predict income and/or debt service coverage ratio information associated with the property. The determinations of the stochastic values can be repeated in accordance with a Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate a potential loan associated with the property.
