When a client is in the market to buy or sell a property, Ackerman will recommend a solution that best meets the client’s needs, whether the property is raw land or an investment-grade commercial project. Our expertise in the areas of zoning, development, and investment advisory services help clients complete building and land transactions that improve their investment portfolios. Our brokers follow a three-step property sales process that includes:

1. Property evaluation – We would begin with an inspection and analysis of the property’s characteristics, including size, condition, access, road frontage, zoning, utilities, taxes, surrounding developments, and other salient features. Income-producing properties would require a further review of the rent roll, leasing and operating history, and financial performance.

2. Market analysis – A market analysis would be prepared to assess overall supply-demand conditions, availability and performance of competitive properties, and prevailing rental rates and prices in the marketplace. The purpose is to establish the property’s market position relative to competitive properties.

3. Marketing plan – We would create and implement a comprehensive marketing plan for the property. The plan would establish the client’s goals of the project and listing price, based on the evaluation of the property and the market. It would also furnish the legal documents, target market, list of prospective purchasers, and identify the appropriate marketing materials, including signage, flyers, and advertising.

Ackerman offers a unique perspective to representing real estate investors – we’re owners, too. We understand how to maximize the value of properties, because it’s our core competency. We develop, own, manage and lease properties from our own portfolio and for third-party owners. We are prepared to assist you in reaching the performance and profitability goals of your real estate investments.
