Overperform without overhead
Historically, access to top class real estate analysts has been reserved for only the big institutional firms. One of the goals of Sapphire since the beginning has been to break this ceiling and provide access to high quality human capital to all, regardless of size or budget. Whether you already have a built out portfolio and need an extra set of hands, or are a new sponsor getting ready for their first acquisition, our team of real estate experts is here to fill the gap.
Professional analysts are crucial to real estate transactions, as we provide the thorough, in-depth analysis on a given deal required to make a prudent decision. The high cost of hiring a team of full-time analysts prevents many firms from obtaining this data, slowing down the overall pipeline and often leading to lower returns.
At Sapphire, we offer the same institutional-grade analyst work, but à la carte. No wasted overhead costs, no benefits to be paid – just the work you need done, when you need it.
Our analysts each have an extensive portfolio of work, having underwritten, managed, or supported hundreds of millions of dollars in capitalized deal flow. We bring this background with us, providing insights on potential opportunities and risks.
We assimilate quickly into preexisting teams, learning everyone’s respective role and personality. And thanks to our long term relationships, clients view our analysts as responsible, and invested, as a true team member would be.
We believe efficiency comes from flexibility. Our analysts can work either hourly or monthly retainer options, customized by your workload. There’s no wasted overhead costs, no benefits to be paid; you simply pay for what you need as you need it.
With fiscal responsibility to your investors and the imperative to achieve the highest return possible, the underwriting model is simply the most crucial financial document for each deal. We build robust, intuitive models that can accommodate any operating plan, asset class, or financing plan you can throw at it.
Deals, in reality, are hardly ever very cut and dry. Usually there are a variety of possible ways to make them work, all of which come with their own return metrics and risk profiles. We can provide a myriad of deal sensitivities, each showing what your deal will look like at different price points, debt rates, exit caps, and more.
We can conduct full market and submarket analysis, providing an in-depth understanding of each relevant market’s existing demand, supply coming on line, qualified tenant demographics, high growth area divisions, and so on. We also build out data-backed macroeconomic outlooks for local & regional economies.
You’ve identified a deal with renovation-potential, one that will clearly reward you and your investors if given a little TLC. But what upgrades will drive the most value? Because of our large portfolio of work, we’ve seen almost every renovation plan imaginable, and can create customized proposals tailored to giving your property the most bang for its buck.
