New York City · Real estate consulting
Equity, measured.
A boutique consultancy for New York real estate. We build the market analytics behind acquisition, disposition, and holding decisions. The numbers before the narrative.
In this market, opinion is free. Evidence is the edge.
Every New York deal comes wrapped in a story: the block is turning, the comps are stale, the seller is motivated. BestEquity exists to separate what the market is saying from what the data can prove.
We are deliberately small: senior analysts only, a handful of engagements at a time, no listings, no commissions. We don't sell property. We sell the evidence behind the decision, and no fee of ours depends on the deal closing.
Practice · Market analytics
-
I
Valuation & underwriting
Independent pricing models for a specific asset: comp selection you can defend, sensitivity ranges instead of a single magic number, and a clear read on where the listing price diverges from the evidence.
-
II
Submarket intelligence
Block-level analysis of the neighborhoods you're weighing: pricing velocity, inventory pipeline, absorption, and the leading indicators that move before the headline numbers do.
-
III
Timing & cycle analysis
Where this submarket sits in its cycle, what the rate and supply picture implies for the next 12 to 36 months, and what that means for whether you transact now or wait.
-
IV
Portfolio benchmarking
Your holdings scored against the market they actually trade in: hold/sell and reposition breakevens per asset, concentration risk, and the ranked list of moves that would improve the whole position.
Method · One engagement, three moves
One · Brief
Frame the decision
One working session to pin down the actual question (buy, sell, hold, reposition) and the price at which the answer changes.
Two · Model
Build the evidence
We assemble the dataset, build the model, and pressure-test it against the deal's own assumptions. Every input is sourced; every range is explained.
Three · Deliver
Deliver the position
A written position you can act on: the value, the range, the risks that would move it. Presented live, defended under questioning.
