Our Work

As a commercial real estate investment company, SARA Investment Real Estate is integrally involved in every aspect of our properties’ operation, from acquisition to disposition. We partner with business owners, tenants and other developers alike to ensure mutually beneficial goals are achieved.

Our dedicated staff is committed to building ongoing, successful, one-to-one relationships with investors, tenants, and operating partners in which all profit, grow and succeed.

 

Acquisitions

By establishing strong relationships with brokerage firms and property owners, our Acquisitions team is able to locate and analyze high-quality real estate projects throughout the Midwest. This department is responsible for underwriting potential investment opportunities, creating in-depth financial models, and conducting extensive market research to verify the economic viability of potential acquisitions. The acquisition department conducts thorough and detailed due diligence, moving forward only if the project meets SARA’s rigorous criteria.

 

Investor Relations

Our Investor Relations team supports investors pursuing direct investment opportunities in commercial real estate properties. We seek to match investors with projects that accurately align with their investment goals and risk tolerance.

SARA has built its reputation by operating with the utmost integrity and through the quality of our communications. We believe in full transparency and regularly report on property performance to ensure that our investors know and understand how their real estate investments are performing. Our team members are committed to building long-term relationships with our investors and providing them with prompt, meaningful communications.

 

Asset management

Once a property is acquired, our Asset Management department implements the customized investment strategy for the asset and provides direct oversight of the property operations during the hold period.

Responsible for managing the Leasing and Property Management teams, our Asset Management department provides vital support for our investors throughout the investment hold period. Whether it’s revising the investment strategy to respond to a change in the market or finding financial efficiencies through various financing options the Asset Management department leads the way.

Our team actively manages each asset’s performance using proprietary forecasting and stress testing templates to evaluate the affect that leasing activities and capital improvements will have on the overall return and viability of the investment. Additionally, the department monitors and tracks market data and provides financial analysis to determine the potential that exists for property redevelopment, refinancing, and optimal time to sell the property.

 

Operations

Our Operations team provides consolidated services to our company including accounting, financial reporting, general office coordination and technology management. Our talented accounting team also provides oversight of our third-party property accounting teams and provides property accounting for our tenant managed properties. Our high level of service ensures tenant stability, enhanced value, and accountability to our investors.

At SARA Investment Real Estate, we strive to provide high-quality service in all aspects of the commercial real estate investment process. Through the seamless transfer of information between members of our Operations team, we can provide single-point accountability to all our investors and vendors alike.

Integrity, respect, innovation and sustainable partnerships are the core values that guide all of what we do and how we do it.
