When most people think of commercial real estate brokers, they think of transactions—buying, selling, and leasing properties. But experienced commercial real estate professionals offer a wide range of non-transactional, fee-based consulting services that deliver strategic value to property owners, investors, corporations, developers, and institutions.

At Atlas Real Estate Advisors, we go beyond the deal to provide advisory services that help clients make smarter real estate decisions, improve asset performance, and reduce long-term risk. Whether you’re a portfolio owner, business executive, or developer, our team offers expert guidance that’s customized, data-driven, and actionable.

Strategic Real Estate Consulting Services That Go Beyond Transactions

1. Market Feasibility Studies

Before investing in a new development or entering a new market, it’s critical to understand local supply, demand, competition, and long-term viability. Our market feasibility studies provide:

Detailed demographic and economic analysis
Competitive landscape and gap analysis
Demand forecasting and highest-and-best-use evaluations
Recommendations for optimal site use and property type

These insights help developers, investors, and municipalities make evidence-based real estate decisions.

2. Real Estate Portfolio Analysis

For owners and corporations with multiple properties, a full portfolio analysis identifies opportunities to reduce costs, maximize returns, and align real estate holdings with business goals.

Property performance benchmarking
Consolidation and disposition strategy
Hold vs. sell modeling
Lease obligations and renewal planning
Geographic and risk exposure analysis

This service provides a comprehensive roadmap for real estate optimization.

3. Site Selection and Location Strategy (Non-Brokerage Advisory)

Even when a client doesn’t need brokerage representation, we offer independent site selection consulting as a fee-based service. This is ideal for:

Corporations expanding or relocating
Logistics and industrial users analyzing supply chain impact
Retailers planning market entry or franchise growth

We use GIS mapping, labor analytics, tax/incentive research, and zoning review to help clients choose the best location for success.

4. Highest and Best Use Analysis

For underutilized or legacy real estate assets, we offer consulting to determine how to unlock hidden value. Services include:

Land use assessment
Zoning and entitlement review
Redevelopment feasibility
Market-based valuation modeling

These insights help clients understand how to repurpose, reposition, or redevelop for maximum impact.

5. Development Advisory and Pre-Development Consulting

Before shovels hit the ground, we help developers and landowners assess:

Entitlements and permitting requirements
Budget forecasting and timeline development
Site planning and infrastructure needs
Tenant mix strategy and exit planning

By offering pre-development advisory, we help mitigate risk and increase project viability from day one.

6. Property Tax Consulting

Excessive property taxes can eat into profitability. We offer:

Property tax appeal support
Market value assessments for tax purposes
Coordination with property tax attorneys and appraisers

This service helps lower the tax burden and improve NOI for property owners.

7. Lease Auditing and Financial Modeling

We provide independent lease audits and cash flow modeling services for:

Landlords evaluating tenant performance
Tenants reviewing CAM charges and rent calculations
Investors modeling returns and IRR across scenarios

Our modeling gives clients financial clarity and negotiation leverage.
