Sectors We Serve
Healthcare
In aggregate, healthcare in the U.S. represents approximately 18 percent of the Gross Domestic Product, equating to almost $4.3 trillion of annual spending.
The facilities that drive this ecosystem are an interconnected network of inpatient acute-care and specialty (hospitals), outpatient (medical office buildings and ambulatory facilities), post-acute (inpatient rehabilitation, etc.), and research and production facilities (laboratories, academic research, pharmaceutical production) that are designed to serve the specific needs of its occupants.
We have unmatched real estate advisory and transactional experience across the healthcare delivery chain, representing some of the nation’s largest healthcare providers, developers, investors, and users.
Higher Education
There are approximately 3,900 degree granting higher education institutions in the U.S., of which approximately two-thirds are four-year institutions. These institutions provide education for over 17 million students, or approximately five percent of the U.S. population.
Over the last decade, due to technological transformation as well as a changing overall job market, Higher Education institutions are facing unprecedented challenges to their traditional business models. This is playing out with a backdrop of aging facilities, evolving physical plant needs and growing pressures on historic funding sources.
We provide advisory services related to how real estate assets could be owned and/or developed. If appropriate, we will provide transaction services related for new real estate development projects and the monetization of existing core and non-core real estate holdings.
