DILIGENCE ADVISORY GROUP

Although major commercial real estate firms share some of the same capabilities, we offer a set of unique strengths to our clients:

• Cushman & Wakefield’s research and market reach can provide superior market data/insight to support diligence, re-underwriting and reporting tasks. • Our valuation team can provide analytics and data points to support market-based assumptions derived from actual transactions. • Cushman & Wakefield’s brokerage network can provide real-time insight on local market conditions that secondary data sources can’t match, again enhancing diligence, re-underwriting and ongoing surveillance processes.

• Cushman & Wakefield’s property management and capital markets expertise can provide clients with additional services that traditional asset managers can’t offer, which allows for enhanced special servicing capabilities. • Additionally, we can be an execution partner in tenant retention and lease-up strategies in order to prepare an asset for disposition (special servicing or owner rep support). • Our project management services will allow for additional resources in administrating investments in construction projects, engaging industry experts to opine on project schedules, budgets, contract structure, permitting issues, etc.
