Commercial Real Estate Investor Authority
Underwrite the property.
Then the story.
An evidence-led Alberta commercial real estate investor resource for sourcing, underwriting, financing, due diligence, tenancy and acquisition decisions.
Current authorized inventory
5,548active Alberta sale recordsLatest source update: 2026-09-08Search these records →Decision context
A marketed cap rate, rent roll or pro forma is a starting claim—not an investment conclusion. A defensible acquisition record connects income and expenses to leases, collections, property condition, capital requirements, financing and exit assumptions.
Commercially provides brokerage search, property information and transaction coordination. Investment, legal, tax, appraisal, environmental, engineering and lending conclusions remain with the qualified decision-makers responsible for them.
This count describes active authorized listing records—not unique properties, completed transactions, vacancy, absorption, value or market size. Missing fields are not estimated.
Decision path
A controlled sequence
from intent to evidence.
Source opportunities consistently
Review public, exclusive and qualified private opportunities against the same mandate. Preserve why properties advance or fail.
Rebuild the underwriting
Trace income, recoveries, vacancy, expenses, capital, leasing costs, debt and exit assumptions to dated evidence. Keep marketed and normalized cases separate.
Control property diligence
Coordinate title, leases, use, permits, condition, environment, insurance, tax, financing and closing evidence through defined conditions and access.
Record the decision
Summarize verified facts, professional conclusions, unresolved risks, scenarios, contractual protection and approval before waiver or closing.
Evidence standard
What belongs
in the decision record.
Income support
Rent roll, leases, amendments, deposits, arrears, concessions, collections, options and tenant-level exceptions.
Operating and capital history
Statements, recoveries, taxes, insurance, utilities, contracts, repairs, replacements, immediate work and future reserves.
Property and tenancy risk
Title, use, permits, building condition, environment, tenant covenant, rollover, vacancy and re-leasing requirements.
Capital and return model
Purchase costs, debt, equity, lender definitions, cash flow, sensitivity, hold period, exit costs and evidence-backed terminal assumptions.
Commercially authority library
Start with the work,
not generic commentary.
Each resource identifies its audience, review date, primary sources, limitations and related decision path. Commercial review is provided by Slav Loban.
