Investing

The Puget Sound Region is one of the most dynamic real estate investment markets in the country and benefits from a combination of strict land use regulation, topographical supply constraints, and employment growth that consistently outpaces the national average.

SEATTLE INVESTMENT MARKET

The Puget Sound Region is known – and envied – around the world for its cultural and economic diversity. The region benefits from the unique confluence of capital and an environment of collaboration. It’s a tremendous base on which to build for the future.

Seattle’s manufacturing base is supported by more than 720 aerospace companies and Boeing predicts the commercial market for aircraft will grow at an annual rate of 4% over the next two decades. The Puget Sound Region is home to growing, innovative retail giants – Amazon, Starbucks, REI, Nordstrom, and Costco are among them. Washington State has two of the finest research universities in the world – the University of Washington and Washington State University – providing a catalyst for research and development (R&D) initiatives and supplying a highly educated workforce.

In the technology sector, Microsoft has attracted the smartest software engineers on the planet for a generation, making this area one of the hottest spots in the country for IT, data storage, gaming software, and other innovations. The largest philanthropic organization in the history of mankind – the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation – is also here, fueling a booming global health sector that is focused on curing deadly diseases and bringing the latest medical advances to the world.

Green & Co Realty's extensive market knowledge, transaction experience and marketing resources can help clients achieve the return they desire — whether they need assistance in finding investment opportunities, acquiring a specific asset or facilitating the sale of one.

We utilize our expertise and vast network to identify “off-market” investments for clients who are looking to acquire assets, and accurately evaluate listed offerings that may be of interest to them. Once an opportunity has been deemed appropriate, we can manage valuation, negotiation and due diligence.

For those looking to sell properties, Green & Co Realty provides comprehensive market, financial and property analyses, and then positions the offering with a first-class marketing package that enhances both credibility and visibility.

ACQUISITION

To accurately identify investment opportunities, I first gain a thorough understanding of each client’s objectives and requirements. I pay particular attention to the fundamentals of the Pacific Northwest and California markets. This ability to appropriately source, underwrite and finance new deals maximizes returns over the life of the investment, as well as investor interest upon disposition.

MARKET ANALYSIS

Green & Co Realty's valuation expertise gives clients confidence that the price of their investment was fair. And our assessment of long-term issues, such as regulation and new construction, can help provide the insight necessary to create realistic expectations around future investment performance.

NEGOTIATION

During every aspect of the transaction, including the negotiation process, our client’s investment objectives are paramount.

DUE DILIGENCE

Understanding the financial performance of any potential investment property is vital. Once a property is under contract, I analyze all due diligence materials and documentation, and assess scenarios based on common risks such as lease expirations and deferred maintenance.

MARKETING

When selling an asset, effective positioning can have a significant impact on both its ultimate sale price and time on the market. My marketing efforts — including offering memorandums and a website for each property — create an upscale feel, while included financial and property analyses add credibility. Most important, I'm able to target the right audiences with those efforts, because my database includes local, national and international investors best suited for each asset. This approach has proven to be incredibly successful.

Testimonials

Michael and his associate Caitlin were able to help be purchase a waterfront condo in Seattle. The home buying process was entirely new to me but Michael and Caitlin were knowledgeable and available to help me through to and beyond closing. Their real estate experience came in handy not only for information and references, but also in landing the offer. As I understand my offer was one among a handful and not the highest but was accepted by the sellers because of the promptness and professionalism of the my agents - their reasoning was something to the effect of, "this buyer seems like they will be the easiest to work with". Would highly recommend the pair to anyone searching for a home in the Seattle area.

"I'm so grateful I had the pleasure to work with Michael. He has been wonderful to work with and the utmost professional. He was able to rent out my house twice this year to great tenants and handled the whole transaction seamlessly. I look forward to working with him in the future."
