CIA Group’s commercial sales division is focused on serving institutional investors and sellers across the globe. We provide services for income producing properties and development sites for multi-family, mixed use, office buildings, value-add, and hotel properties. CIA Group has also developed deep expertise in debt and note sales that are secured by underlying commercial real estate assets.

The Company serves a wide array of international investors who seek U.S. based real estate investments. U.S. real estate is attractive to foreign investors as a hedge against currency fluctuations, provide for international diversification, and give the investor access to some of the most vibrant real estate markets in the world. U.S. based real estate provides an investment alternative for the international investor in a market where economic and political climates are unstable, relative to other international markets.

Specific Market Knowledge

CIA Group’s Sales Associates have extensive, “feet on the street” knowledge of the markets in which they operate. This specific knowledge provides benefits to our clients including:

• Real time knowledge of market conditions, regional economy factors, and current financing levels. This knowledge enables CIA Group to secure optimal price and terms for our clients and shorten sales cycles.
• Access to all conventional and unconventional financing options including private financing and mezzanine financing.  Our proprietary database of investors and industry contacts often enables CIA Group to secure financing not found elsewhere and move properties before they hit the public market.
• “Local” knowledge that identifies the true value of a property vs. a traditional, backward-looking bank appraisal. Factors include property type, local leasing rates, local occupancy rates, and a knowledge of the geographic desirability of the property
