Transaction Management
As the world’s largest occupier-focused commercial real
estate advisory firm, Cresa is uniquely suited to act as your unbiased advocate
on all transactions. Our experts manage the process from strategic planning
through final negotiations, providing real estate solutions that support your
business goals. As your advisor, we are relationship-oriented, not
transaction-oriented. This means you receive the same level of service on small
renewals as you will on a headquarters relocation or large-scale consolidation.
Experts in
Acquisitions and dispositions
Whether you are looking to lease or purchase space, or
offload existing space through sublease or sale, we can assist. Once we
understand the business drivers prompting the transaction, we work with you to
develop and implement a strategy that supports your financial goals and
long-term business objectives.
Site selection
We offer insight on location, proximity to talent, salary
benchmarks and points of negotiation, helping you identify the optimal location
for your new space.
Flexible office solutions
Whether you’re a Fortune 500 or fast-growing company, we
have dedicated experts who will support your team in managing its flexible
workspace strategy and show you only fully-vetted flexible office options.
Financial modeling
We help you understand how any lease transaction – or
portfolio of leases – will impact your financial statement metrics. Such
information is essential for compliance and for making better leasing decisions
and identifying opportunities for cost savings.
Colocation, data centers and mission critical facilities
As technology continues to evolve, so does the need for the
specialized real estate that accommodates the infrastructure that operates
those systems. Our experts can help you identify the right solutions and fail-safe
infrastructure to keep you up and running.
Workspace Solutions
Our experts understand how influential the right work
environment can be and will work with you to develop a space that enhances productivity,
innovation and culture. Whether optimizing your current workspace, creating a
new design or exploring a hybrid workforce strategy, we’re committed to
enhancing the way you work.

improvements and help you develop a plan that supports your employees – no
matter where they work.

systems to provide valuable insight and reporting for your space. We remain
flexible in our approach to technology and can work within your preferred

Consulting
As companies make real estate decisions, there’s often a tendency

plan and portfolio needs, we create tailored solutions that support your real
estate and decrease your capital costs. We work cross-functionally with your
finance, accounting, operations, legal and real estate departments. Together,
we ensure our recommended approach meets your funding requirements, aligns with
your intended accounting treatment and complies with existing debt covenants.
Recognizing business operations and capital health as top
priorities, we’ll help you extract the value that’s currently locked in your
real estate portfolio — leased or owned. We access broad and diverse capital
sources including life insurance companies, banking institutions, pension
