Brokerage
Point Bridge provides brokerage services to buyers and sellers of commercial real estate, including owner-users and investors. Our services are tailored to meet the specific needs and objectives of individual and corporate clients, rather than a “one size fits all” approach.
We are experienced in a broad range of product types including office, light industrial, retail, land, and apartment properties. Our process and methods are time-tested and, as your advocate, we manage the negotiation and transaction process from beginning to closing.
We are known for our financial skills and utilize sophisticated modeling and comparable sales analyses to evaluate properties. We leverage market knowledge and industry relationships to maximize value for our clients.
Seller Representation (Property Disposition Services)
Commercial properties don’t sell themselves and that is why Point Bridge develops and implements a comprehensive marketing plan for each exclusive listing.
We handle your property as if it were our own and pay special attention to how the listing is presented to the marketplace – from high quality photography and signage to the detailed property information that serious buyers require. Our strategy is to achieve maximum exposure in order to deliver the highest sales price and most favorable terms for the client.
Your property will be advertised and promoted using web-based listing services and social media. We market to, and fully cooperate with, other real estate brokers who may represent buyers or investors. We communicate with buyers, investors and developers – our contacts and relationships have been developed and maintained over many years.
Buyer Representation (Property Acquisition Services)
We utilize the full depth of our resources, experience and market knowledge to identify and evaluate purchase opportunities. Point Bridge also helps clients compare the advantages and disadvantages of owning vs. leasing. Our services include:
- Comprehensive market survey of available (or potentially available) properties and sites. Our research includes properties that are “on the market”, for sale by owner, and “off market”.
- Geographic and demographic analysis of potential locations.
- Purchase vs. lease cash flow analysis, including financing and tax assumptions, cost of capital and return on equity.
- Recommendations on pre-purchase due diligence investigations and timing.
- Feasibility studies including purchase, new construction and build-to-suit.
- Pro-forma occupancy cost projections for planning and budgeting purposes.
Investment Property Services
Point Bridge represents buyers and sellers of investment property, including single assets and portfolios, for investors seeking stabilized returns or value-added opportunities. We maintain an extensive database of active buyers, sellers, investors and developers.
We speak the language of investment property transactions, including the specific characteristics of retail, office, light industrial, apartment, land and net leased properties. Further, we understand capital markets and have established relationships with lending institutions and appraisers.
Point Bridge is proficient in investment property valuation, including discounted cash flow and yield modeling. We “crunch the numbers” using ARGUS® software, the industry standard for commercial real estate cash flow projection, transaction analysis and asset valuation.
For investment property disposition assignments, we prepare a detailed Offering Memorandum as part of a comprehensive marketing plan designed to achieve maximum value through maximum exposure. We develop an offering format to meet the specific needs and objectives of your assignment (for example, controlled / confidential offering, open offering, or priced vs. un-priced). Areas of expertise include:
- Sell now vs. Hold
- Sale and Lease-back (full or partial)
- Leveraged and un-leveraged rate of return projections
