The number
you'd stake
your lease on.
We walk the floor. We read the light, the sightlines, the loading dock, the neighboring tenants. Then we give you a number that holds — in negotiations, in court, in front of a judge.
Preliminary Valuation Estimator
Not a spreadsheet guess — a starting point for the conversation.
Every kind of space.
Every kind of problem.
Four engagements. Four different stakes. One consistent outcome — a number that holds.

Three approaches.
One defensible number.
Every appraisal applies whichever combination of the three recognized approaches best fits the property type, the available data, and the intended use. We document every judgment call.
Sales Comparison
We pull every comparable retail transaction within a defined market radius — adjusted for size, condition, lease structure, and location quality. No automated AVM shortcuts. We read the comps ourselves.
Income Capitalization
Rent roll analysis, vacancy modeling, expense reimbursement verification, and cap rate selection informed by current investor behavior in the specific submarket — not national averages.
Cost Approach
When income data is thin or the property is atypical, we price the land separately, build up the replacement cost of the improvements, and apply a depreciation schedule grounded in the actual physical condition we observed on the floor.
"We don't appraise from a desk. We walk the floor, read the light, and count the cars in the lot at 11am on a Tuesday."
