Valuation and advisory.

What a valuation includes.

A written broker's opinion of value, with the data and the reasoning shown so the number can be examined and defended in front of a partner, a lender, or a court.

• Comparable salesClosed trades in the submarket, adjusted for the specifics of the property.
• Income and expense benchmarksRents, operating expenses, and taxes against the submarket, with regulatory status where it applies.
• Zoning and as-of-right analysisBuildable square footage and development potential for sites and under-built properties.
• Capital markets contextCurrent financing terms and how they set what buyers can pay.
• Buyer pool and pricing rangeWho is actively buying this asset type at this price, and the range they will transact in.
• Recommended strategySell, hold, refinance, recapitalize, or ground lease, and the sequence to execute it.

Advisory.

Beyond the number, we advise on the decision. That includes hold-versus-sell analysis, disposition and marketing strategy, portfolio review and prioritization, 1031 exchange timing, pre-marketing preparation so a property goes to market in the strongest position, and coordination with the owner's attorneys, accountants, and lenders. Where a sale is not the right answer, we say so and lay out the alternatives.

Who we work with.

Owners, families and estates, partnerships, and their attorneys, accountants, and lenders, whenever a defensible number and a clear recommendation are needed.
