Consulting
Metrostudy experts produce the best-documented, most complete, and most comprehensive market studies available, completely customized to your needs. We can provide anything from quick preliminary analyses to fully documented studies that stand up to the toughest scrutiny.
The major residential study types are:
Trade Area Report: A set of information and formatted exhibits for a narrowly defined geographic area. It includes a map showing all relevant residential projects in the area, a printout showing summary data on all of the subdivisions in the relevant niche, and a scatter-graph showing the price positioning of the floorplans being marketed at each competitive project. This powerful information is available with short turnaround time.
Market Demand Study: A professionally prepared report that incorporates all the research needed to develop a highly defensible forecast of absorptions for a residential project. This includes a look at the supply and demand in the market as a whole, competitive foreclosure supply, incomes, demographic mix, population projections, as well as a subjective evaluation of the area surrounding the subject property. This report provides comprehensive data on the key comparable projects and competitors, including their remaining lot supplies, and analyzes this information to reach insightful conclusions.
Loan Portfolio Valuation Study: Metrostudy has valued entire bank loan portfolios for private equity fund clients. Our methodology is regarded as superior because it is a true bottom-up (asset-level) analysis, and because it is forward looking (based upon our proprietary, detailed forecasts of land/lot/home values). Metrostudy’s data and research infrastructure allow quick delivery of billion-dollar loan portfolios.
Demographic Growth Study: Used by retail real estate developers and investors, this type of study delves into the current and future population (household count) in a specific area. Usually the client is concerned with a certain radius around an intersection to be developed. Using our proprietary data on current and planned residential projects, we have the unique ability to produce reliable household projections. Metrostudy consults for some of the largest mall developers and investors in the country, leveraging our unique capabilities and data.
Metrostudy also performs a variety of analyses, specialized studies and consulting services. These specialized consulting services include:
