Potential clients include Hedge Fund or other private RE Owner wanting superb reporting at a reasonable cost, or Public REIT.

Client Involvement: The primary success driver is the commitment and hands on involvement of one or more knowledgeable and motivated lead analyst(s) in the client's organization, who understands the reporting details, and wants to help build an alternative to XL.
