The broker sees the building. Nobody sees all of it.

Most owners treat their real estate as a place to work. It is also one of the biggest checks they will ever write, and often their cheapest source of capital.

Here is the problem: the broker sees the building, the banker sees the loan, the insurance agent sees the policy. Nobody sees all of it. We do.


Who we work with

Own it, run in it or lease it.

Owners and investors

You own buildings for the income or the equity. You need to know when to hold, sell, refinance or buy.

Investment →

Operators

Your business runs out of a building you own. That building may be your cheapest capital and your biggest exit question.

Sale-leaseback →

Occupiers

You lease the space you work in. Your lease is one of the biggest checks you sign, and it should fit your growth and your exit.

Lease strategy →
What we do

Three ways we help

Brokerage

Buying, selling or leasing space, measured against your operating plan, not just the comps.

Brokerage →

Investment

Sale-leasebacks, refinancing, recapitalization and acquisitions. Turn real estate into capital without giving up control.

Investment →

Asset Strategy

Owner's-side asset strategy. Hold, sell, refinance or reposition, decided like an owner.

Asset Strategy →

Sale-leaseback. Sell the building, stay in it, and put the capital to work in the business. See the sale-leaseback playbook →


Why Centered

Advice from people who have owned the building.

We have started and run businesses, and we have owned the buildings they ran in. So we advise the way we would want to be advised.

01

One team

Insurance, benefits, real estate, capital markets and M&A, working from the same plan.

02

Coverage moves with the deal

Your insurance program is in the room before terms are set, not after closing.

03

Lease terms fit the financing

Rent, term and obligations are set with your lender and your capital plan in view.

04

Every decision ties back to your exit

What you buy, sell or sign today should make the business worth more when you leave it.

Not sure what your real estate is worth to your business?

Neither are most owners. Start with a Real Estate Capital Assessment.
