The Work Behind Every Recommendation

A recommendation is only as good as the numbers under it. The Jordan Group prices buildings off closed sales, underwrites them the way a buyer’s lender will, and shows the owner the working.

How a Los Angeles Apartment Building Is Valued

A multifamily building is read three ways at once: the capitalization rate implied by its net operating income, the price per unit set against recent comparable sales, and the gross rent multiplier. Where rents sit well below market, a building also trades on the upside a buyer can eventually capture, not only on today’s income.

None of that can be answered from a listing site. It starts with a current rent roll and trailing operating statements, and it prices off closed sales rather than asking prices. The research behind a Jordan Group recommendation covers:

  • Closed comparable sales in the same submarket, verified rather than assumed
  • In-place income against market rents, unit by unit
  • The regulatory position: rent stabilization coverage, transfer tax exposure, retrofit and permit history
  • Who is actively buying this size of building right now, and what they are paying for it

Local Knowledge, Kept Current

Submarket analysis, comparables and valuation work behind every recommendation.

Submarket, Not Region

A regional average is not a price. Value in Los Angeles changes street by street, and a number built on citywide data will be wrong in one direction or the other depending on where the building sits.

Legislation and Its Effects

Deep knowledge of local market trends and legislation, kept current as ordinances change, lets The Jordan Group say what a rule does to a specific building’s value and timeline, rather than what it does in general.

Shown, Not Asserted

Owners get the reasoning as well as the number: which sales were used, why they compare, and what would have to be true for the figure to move. A price you can defend is a price that survives due diligence.
