Shouldn’t you be working with Meridian Investment Sales?
Meridian’s investment sales team comprises some of the leading investment sales professionals in New York City. With more than 90 years of combined New York City real estate sales experience Meridian’s investment sales professionals offer best-in-class expertise spanning the full breadth of asset types, deal sizes and sub-markets.
Our team boasts intimate knowledge of New York City real estate, right down to the neighborhood and building level. It has detailed understanding not just of how tenancies and cash flows drive value, but of how zoning, land use, air rights and alternative uses drive property values as well. Our clients value our unparalleled, real-time intelligence regarding the market and our deep relationships with a full array of active local, national and international buyers. And, because our sales team has transacted over the course of many market cycles, clients engage us not only to sell property, but for advice on portfolio management, risk mitigation and value creation too. Meridian’s sales professionals benefit from the expertise and relationships of the Company’s world-class debt business. Founded in 1991, Meridian Capital Group is America’s most active debt broker and one of the nation’s leading commercial real estate finance advisory firms. In 2018, Meridian closed 3,500 loans totaling more than $37 billion in loan volume—or $135 million per business day. Indeed, since its inception, the Company has closed more than $350 billion in financing by working closely with a full complement of capital providers, including local, regional and national banks, CMBS lenders, agency lenders, mortgage REITs, life insurance companies, credit unions and private equity funds. Meridian arranges financing for many of the world’s leading real estate investors and developers, and the market expertise and buyer relationships that the Company has developed through its debt platform is another important factor differentiating and enhancing our investment sales team.
Meridian’s sales group places enormous premium on bringing a unique perspective to each property it markets; by analyzing alternative and best uses, complex zoning considerations, and ‘manufacturing’ buyers through creative equity and financing solutions, our sales group specializes in unlocking and optimizing values for clients
The sales group employs rigorous analytics and pays close attention to detail in creating all marketing materials, which reflect careful thought and sensitivity to each data point and reference.
Our sales group is fully updated on the macro and micro market conditions that impact real estate valuations, leveraging Meridian’s in-depth knowledge of financing and financial markets.
Meridian’s sales team never waits for the market to come to them. Rather, when marketing properties, the group aggressively seeks out buyers, placing a heavy emphasis on sourcing unlikely buyers, conducting value-add property tours, shepherding sellers through the negotiation process, and facilitating fast and efficient closings.
The sales group possesses deep relationships with the broadest base of prospective real estate buyers, and in-depth knowledge of the newest markets entrants, both locally and internationally.
