Maximize opportunities in your real estate portfolio.

From the simplest reports and mapping to complex geospatial techniques and spatial interaction modeling, we have the experience and expertise to help you deal with the complexity of today’s real estate market. Forecast sales, optimize your network, assess competitive threats, estimate market cannibalization, identify first-mover opportunities or discover the perfect location for your next restaurant, branch or retail location using data analytics.

Evaluate market potential

Make informed site, location and capital investment decisions using analytics tools such as GIS mapping, geocoding and location intelligence. Use trade area analysis to optimize existing store footprint, identify underserved markets for expansion, or estimate any site’s retail opportunity. You can also gauge the impact of competition and cannibalization by comparing one location’s trade area to another.

Optimize your investment

Identify the untapped potential within a market for expansion. Analyze your existing bricks-and-mortar footprint versus the market potential to identify how many other locations can be added to a market, as well as, where to place those locations. Network optimization can also help you assess which sites are underperforming and identify locations that may need to close or relocate.

Find your best customers

Use predictive modeling and profiling to analyze your best customers and determine the optimal mix of products and services for a specific location or area. Gain insight into neighborhood trends and rank locations based on data such as demographics, lifestyles, spending patterns, race and ethnicity, acculturation, language use or rates of crime in a given area.
