Services

One analyst. Full acquisitions desk.

Every engagement is scoped to a fixed fee, built in unlocked Excel, and delivered with the assumptions documented — so your lender, your LPs, and your future self can follow the math.

UW—01

Acquisition Underwriting

Dynamic 10-year DCFs with T-12 normalization, rent roll analysis, and debt sizing against agency, bank, and bridge terms. Kill it or chase it with conviction.

UW—02

Development Pro Formas

Ground-up and heavy value-add: full development budget, S-curve draw schedule, lease-up modeling, and trended vs. untrended yield on cost.

UW—03

Equity Waterfalls

LP/GP structures with preferred returns, IRR hurdles, catch-ups, and promote crystallization — modeled to the penny and stress-tested at every tier.

UW—04

Investor Materials

One-page tear sheets, investment committee memos, and assumption books your capital partners can actually read — and can't poke holes in.

UW—05

Model Audits

A second set of eyes on the model you already have: formula integrity, circularity traps, broken links, and assumptions benchmarked against market.

UW—06

Asset Management Models

Hold/sell analyses, refinance scenarios, and quarterly reforecasts against budget — so the deal keeps performing after it closes.

Process

From OM to investor ready in four moves.

Send the deal

OM, T-12, and rent roll for acquisitions; budget and plans for development. A messy broker PDF is fine — normalizing it is the job. Mutual NDA signed same day if needed.

Scope & quote

You get a fixed fee and a delivery date within hours, in writing. No hourly meters running, no surprise invoices at the end.

Model & review

The draft lands in your inbox on schedule. We walk through it together on a call — every assumption, every driver — until you can defend it without me in the room.

Own everything

Unlocked, formula-transparent Excel. No black boxes, no locked tabs, no subscriptions. Two revision rounds included on every fixed-fee engagement.

Pricing

Fixed fees. Posted publicly. On purpose.

Most consultants make you book a call to learn what a model costs. These are the numbers — benchmarked against what freelance CRE analysts actually bill.

Where these numbers come from: freelance CRE analysts bill roughly $125–$175/hr; a full underwriting runs 5–8 focused hours, a custom model 15–25. Fixed fees simply make that math predictable. Complex deals (large mixed-use, hotels, portfolios) are quoted before work begins — never after. Hourly advisory available at $150/hr for anything that doesn't fit a box.

The Analyst Behind the Models

You're not hiring a marketplace. You're hiring me.

I'm Joel Taglianetti — a commercial real estate analyst with three years underwriting acquisitions and development across the capital stack, currently at a Providence-based development firm. I've modeled $450M+ in transactions across multifamily, mixed-use, and commercial deals, and I've spent two summers inside a commercial bank's credit process — so I know what a lender looks for long before a memo reaches committee.

Real estate has been the dinner-table conversation in my family for many years now, and numbers have always been the part I was good at. This practice is where those two things meet: every model is built start to finish by me — no outsourced help, no entry-level staff, no automated shortcuts.

Questions, Answered

The things you'd ask on a call.

Completely. A mutual NDA is signed before any documents change hands — I have a standard one ready, or we can use yours. Files are stored encrypted and purged after the engagement on request. I also never work both sides of the same deal.

For acquisitions: the OM, trailing-12 financials, and rent roll. For development: land basis, budget, and plans at whatever stage exists. Messy broker PDFs and half-finished spreadsheets are normal — cleaning them up is part of the fee.

Excel, natively — every deliverable is an unlocked workbook with transparent formulas and zero required plug-ins. I can build in your firm's template or mine.

Deal Screens are delivered within 48 hours of receiving documents, full stop. Full Underwritings run 3–5 business days depending on complexity. Retainer clients jump the queue with 48-hour priority on everything. If I can't hit a date, you hear it before you commit — not after.

It happens — that's the business. You pay only for work performed, capped at 50% of the quoted fee, and the amount you've paid credits toward your next deal within 90 days. Dead deals shouldn't cost you twice.

Two full revision rounds on every fixed-fee engagement — updated assumptions, new debt quotes, revised business plans. Structural scope changes (say, adding a waterfall the deal didn't originally have) are quoted in writing before any work continues.

No — analysis only. No success fees, no licensing conflicts, no incentive to make a bad deal look good. The numbers say what the numbers say, which is exactly why lenders and LPs trust them.
