Identifying demand in potential new markets
Our location benchmarking tools are designed to help you identify potential new markets and inform your investment strategies. These flexible tools rank the attractiveness of cities and regions against a broad range of economic, demographic and risk factors, and are designed to focus on your priorities. The tools combine structural data and forecasts, allowing you to compare markets both today and in the future.
The macroeconomic implications for the real estate market
We work with organisations to help them understand how macroeconomic shocks affect the real estate prices and returns. We can also work with an organisation’s own real estate data to help understand these impacts at the city level and across different property types.
Identifying competitive locations to invest
Our cities forecasting models, with global coverage, enable us to bring unique insight at the regional or city level across the world. We can work with you to understand, for example, where talent can be best be recruited at competitive wages or where operating costs might be minimised.
