Case Studies

Due Diligence Support

Situation
Two large US investment bank's lending units required due diligence support on a transaction involving 140+ limited service hotel properties.

Solution
Realogic mobilized its due diligence team and provided the following services:

• Underwriting: Realogic underwrote each asset while addressing the issues of stabilized vs. unstabilized assets, securitization and rating agency requirements.
• Site visits throughout the country: Each asset was visited to assess the relative strength of the asset compared to its competitor set.
• 3rd party report review. Realogic reviewed and abstracted the engineering, environmental and appraisal reports for consistency, errors and reasonableness.
• Written summaries of the findings were prepared to provide the client with an instant view of each assets performance, strengths and weaknesses.

Realogic's ability to harness its industry expertise and technological capabilities produced a consistent, accurate and well documented package that allowed the banks to focus energy on their customer.

Model 9,000 tenant portfolio in Argus™

Situation
A client called with an immediate need to model a 9,000 tenant portfolio in Argus™. The client was in competition with several industry counterparts to acquire the portfolio and timing was of the essence. Fortunately, source documents were available; unfortunately the documents were in Adobe PDF format.

Solution
Realogic gathered its analytical team and devised a process that:

• Converted all pdf files into MS Excel files
• The Excel files were migrated into MS Access.
• Using OpenArgus™, all Access files were imported into Argus™ v12.
• All Argus™ files were reviewed and forwarded to the client.

The client was at an advantage during the bidding process due to Realogic's ability to provide current financial information via Argus™ models.

Best Practices Case Study
Integration of lease data into accounting program

Situation
Several of Realogic's abstracting and Ellipsis® clients were struggling with integrating their lease information, acquired during the due diligence process, with their accounting programs. The clients believed manual entry of the data from Ellipsis® to their accounting system was the only option.

Solution
Realogic has developed links to several accounting systems that seamlessly upload data abstracted in Ellipsis®. Thousands of leases have now been transferred from the due diligence process to accounting in a matter of HOURS instead of WEEKS, and clients are able to bill tenants immediately. The data is gathered one time and then spread throughout the organization, significantly reducing the number of hours required to do this in the past.
