The ACA Advantage
Relationship Driven
We understand the complexities and competition amongst brokerage firms. With no managerial oversight or approval needed we favor the long-term working relationship over the quick paycheck.
Access to Investors, Capital, Partners
Unlike larger firms solely focused on traditional “ready-to-sell” investment sales, ACA is also able to assist clients with developing and implementing tailored solutions. Through ACA’s relationships with investors and capital/equity partners, client goals may be achieved regardless of the stage of the transaction.
Detail Oriented
When representing clients in the market, our goal is to make the process smooth and efficient as most often the client is (or will be) under a time constraint. We accomplish this by providing updated status and property reports and coordinating with third-party service providers such as mortgage brokers, environmental consultants, and surveyors.
Easily Accessible
No matter the facet, Real Estate is an inherently “service-based” business. We understand this and pride ourselves as to our accessibility regardless of the day or time.
