HI-LO Study: Pinnacle Property Group Sets New Standard in Due Diligence

We often receive calls from clients who are looking for a Property Tax Estimate on a Commercial Property they are looking to acquire. Predicting these accurately can be risky – it’s about 2/3rd’s fact-based and heavily researched, and about 1/3rd’s crapshoot. Haha! So that breakdown may be a bit off, but no one really has a crystal ball to see what markets will be doing in the coming months.

Based on the research we conducted writing Pain in the Asset Manager, we identified key drivers similar to property taxes that could have a High Impact on bottom line performance.  Like property taxes, these items also had a Low frequency of Occurrence in that they are evaluated once per year or less.  This led to the development of our HI-LO Study on potential acquisitions.

Our HI-LO Study contains a quick glance of potential expenses and savings related to:

• Property Taxes,
• Federal Taxes, and
• Utilities.

Within the HI-LO Study, we provide a comprehensive property tax estimate based upon our understanding of the market, what economists and industry experts are forecasting, and our experience applying our aggressive strategy to your property.  In addition, we also set forth a forecast of predictable bottom-line savings that can be achieved through applying accounting strategies spelled out in a Cost Segregation Study.  Finally, additional savings can be achieved through effective management of Utilities with both contract and consumption strategies.

If you are purchasing a property and would like to know more about the savings that can be generated with these strategies, then a HI-LO Study is just what the doctor ordered.  These are provided to our clients with no obligation or expense.

So, a simple Property Tax Estimate may have value when looking at a possible new property, but it can be uncertain, and sometimes doesn’t suggest the tax liability you were hoping to see.  The other components of our HI-LO Study are certainly more predictable and their potential savings could offset much of the risk taken with property tax uncertainty.  This is what led to the creation of the HI-LO Study, which is quickly becoming the standard in Due Diligence/Underwriting.
