In Brief

What acquisition teams need to know.

A CRE comps database organizes rent comps, sales comps, expense comps, property metadata, source documents, and model outputs so acquisition teams can compare future opportunities faster. Primer helps teams build this database automatically as part of each deal run instead of maintaining a separate manual tracker.

The problem with comp memory

Teams see thousands of data points across OMs, rent rolls, T-12s, market reports, and prior bids. Without a system, that knowledge stays trapped in individual files and analysts' memories.

  • Rent comps
  • Sales comps
  • Expense comps
  • Tax history
  • Property characteristics

The Primer approach

Primer can catalog data from each reviewed deal so the next underwriting run can benefit from the firm's own deal history.

  • Rows and map views
  • Property-level fields
  • Source-backed data
  • Future underwriting context
