InstitutionalModels™
Services

Three practices. One institutional standard.

Every engagement is built from the ground up — no templates, no shortcuts. Our capabilities span the full arc of institutional real estate: underwriting, model platforms, and portfolio optimization.

01Investment Underwriting

Institutional underwriting frameworks supporting acquisitions, developments, and complex investment transactions.

Underwriting engagements are structured around the specific mandate: acquisitions, development, refinances, recapitalizations, and portfolio-level transactions. Every model separates data, logic, and outputs so assumptions remain transparent and audit-ready at every stage.

Deliverables include the underwriting model itself, supporting schedules, and executive-ready outputs — with dedicated review passes before hand-off. Ongoing underwriting support is available on retainer.

  • ·Acquisition underwriting (single-asset and portfolio)
  • ·Ground-up development underwriting
  • ·Recapitalization and refinance analysis
  • ·ARGUS import and Excel translation
  • ·Waterfall, promote, and JV structures
  • ·Dedicated outsourced underwriting support

02Model Platforms

Purpose-built systems for portfolio management, investment reporting, and integration with platforms such as ARGUS and Yardi.

Platform builds replace fragmented per-deal spreadsheets with a single system aligned to how your firm invests, reports, and makes decisions. Each platform is designed to compound analyst productivity across every future deal.

Platforms are architected in three layers — data, calculations, outputs — so components can be customized, extended, and audited independently over time.

  • ·Underwriting platforms (per-strategy)
  • ·Portfolio and fund reporting systems
  • ·ARGUS ↔ Excel integration layers
  • ·Yardi and third-party data pipelines
  • ·Investment committee memo automation
  • ·AI tool and workflow integration

03Portfolio Optimization

Attribution analysis, risk evaluation, and capital allocation frameworks designed to improve investment performance over time.

Portfolio work supports capital deployment decisions — identifying performance drivers, quantifying risk exposures, and testing capital allocation strategies against a range of market scenarios.

Engagements typically pair a portfolio-level analytical framework with a supporting reporting layer so that findings can be reviewed, discussed, and acted on across the investment team.

  • ·Portfolio attribution and performance analytics
  • ·Risk decomposition and stress-testing
  • ·Interest rate cap and hedging optimization
  • ·Capital allocation frameworks
  • ·Pacing and deployment analysis
  • ·Fund-level reporting and dashboards
