Service line 1 — lead offer

Real estate consulting

For owners, principals, and GPs of mid-size CRE platforms who need advisory depth across ops, capital, and acquisitions.

Platform & operations

Build the operating system, protect NOI, and put senior ops ownership in place when you need it.

Operating platform build

Org design, KPIs, budgeting cadence, and vendor stack for a growing investment or development shop.

  • Role clarity and operating cadence
  • KPI dashboards that ownership actually uses
  • Budget rhythm and vendor stack cleanup

Asset management & NOI

Lease-up strategy, capital plans, and lender / investor reporting packages that hold up under refinancing.

  • NOI improvement plans with owner accountability
  • Capital planning tied to hold / exit goals
  • Institutional-grade reporting packages

Leasing strategy

Speculative and build-to-suit industrial; value-add repositioning; pre-leasing milestones ahead of delivery.

  • Leasing plans and milestone tracking
  • Broker / team coordination from the owner’s side
  • Value-add and repositioning leasing strategy

Fractional / interim COO

Part-time operating leadership for CRE firms that need senior ops ownership without a full-time seat.

  • Interim leadership through a growth or transition stretch
  • Hands-on accountability across ops, asset management, and finance touchpoints
  • Right-sized retainer after discovery

Post-acquisition / value-add ops takeover

Hands-on operating ownership for the first 90–180 days after close or into a value-add plan — systems, leasing, CapEx, and reporting stood up fast.

  • 90–180 day ops takeover after close
  • Lease-up, CapEx, and vendor rhythm from day one
  • Reporting and KPI cadence for ownership

Portfolio & capital

Clarify hold vs sell, surface trapped capital, and rebuild reporting ownership and lenders will use.

Portfolio / asset review

Fixed-scope sprint on hold vs sell, CapEx need, lease-up risk, covenant pressure, and underperforming assets — ending in a prioritised action list for ownership.

  • Hold / sell and CapEx clarity by asset
  • Lease-up, covenant, and underperformance flags
  • Prioritised owner action list from a short sprint

Capital identification

Find trapped equity, refinance capacity, preferred equity / JV room, and disposition proceeds — often paired with a portfolio / asset review.

  • Trapped equity and refinance capacity maps
  • Preferred equity / JV room screening
  • Disposition proceeds paths tied to the asset plan

Investor & lender reporting rebuild

Cleaner packages ownership and lenders will actually use — cadence, structure, and narrative that hold up under refinance and LP scrutiny.

  • Reporting cadence and package structure
  • LP- and lender-ready narrative and metrics
  • Built for refinance and ongoing investor updates

Deals

Operator-led sourcing and client-side capital support — advisory only, not a broker desk.

Targeted acquisition search

Operator-led, mandate-driven deal search — not a broker desk — with underwriting screens and a shortlist that carries ops and capital notes.

  • Mandate-driven sourcing against your criteria
  • Underwriting screens before anything reaches ownership
  • Shortlist with ops and capital notes, not a listing dump

Capital & underwriting support

Client-side acquisition diligence, refinance packages, and disposition prep — financial fluency with operator accountability.

  • Diligence and underwriting support for your deals
  • Refinance and investor package prep
  • Disposition readiness without Brickmade taking principal risk

Brickmade Capital provides consulting services only. It does not buy, sell, or solicit interests in real estate, and does not provide legal, tax, or securities advice. Capital and underwriting support is advisory to the client’s own transactions.

Service line 2 — secondary & CRE add-on

AI productivity

Sold on its own or layered onto CRE engagements so the operating gains stick.

Half-day pilot workshop

On-site or remote: Claude live on a few machines, one shared Project, and an “Ask Your Org” demo. Low commitment, visible results.

30-day Starter Deployment

Install Claude Desktop, connect existing tools (Microsoft 365, Google, Slack, and more), stand up enterprise search, build 3–5 shared Projects for core workflows, and train by role.

Ongoing optimization

Monthly check-ins to expand connectors, refine Projects, and roll out new capabilities as the platform evolves.

CRE-specific AI workflows

Investor reports, lease abstracts, deal memos, and property-ops SOPs loaded as shared Projects — AI tuned to how real estate teams actually work.
