Commercial Real Estate Underwriting & Deal Sourcing

The Strategic Objective

Commercial real estate investing is fundamentally an information asymmetry business. The teams that can ingest on-market and distressed listing data the fastest, extract capitalization rates, calculate price per rentable building foot, and contact listing brokers first capture the highest risk-adjusted returns.

Traditional Bottlenecks

• Manual data entry: Analysts spend hours copy-pasting listing details, square footage, and year-built specs into Excel underwriting models.
• Search limits: Public platforms cap browse results, obscuring submarket opportunities.
• Outdated comparables: Relying on stale comps leads to inaccurate valuation models.
