Portfolio Analysis is a critical process for real estate investors and managers seeking to optimize the performance, manage risk, and maximize the value of their real estate assets. Our expertise and analytical tools will help you achieve a thorough understanding of your investments and align them with your long-term objectives.
Effective portfolio analysis begins with a detailed assessment of each asset within the portfolio. This involves evaluating the financial performance, operational metrics, and market positioning of individual properties.

Note Sales are a powerful financial tool for both lenders and investors looking to manage risk, optimize capital allocation, or seize new investment opportunities in the real estate market. Whether you’re a lender seeking to divest non-performing loans or an investor looking to acquire discounted notes with strong potential for value creation, our note sales services are tailored to meet your specific needs.
By selling notes, lenders can quickly convert illiquid assets into cash, which can then be redeployed into new lending opportunities or used to strengthen their balance sheets. For banks, credit unions, and other financial institutions, note sales are an effective way to manage portfolio risk, particularly in times of economic uncertainty or market volatility. Factor Real Estate Finance works closely with lenders to assess their portfolios, identify notes suitable for sale, and execute transactions that maximize value while minimizing disruption to their operations.
Restructuring is a critical process for real estate investors and developers seeking to optimize the financial health of their assets, especially in times of market volatility or operational challenges. We provide expert restructuring services that help our clients realign their capital structures, improve cash flow, and enhance the performance of their portfolios. Whether you’re facing financial difficulties, seeking to reposition an underperforming asset, or looking to capitalize on new opportunities, our restructuring solutions are tailored to meet your specific needs and objectives.
Restructuring allows property owners and investors to adjust their financing arrangements, renegotiate terms with lenders, and reposition their assets to align with current market trends. This process can involve refinancing existing debt, negotiating with creditors, modifying loan covenants, or even bringing in equity partners to strengthen the asset’s financial foundation.
Ground Lease transactions are an innovative and strategic capital solution that can significantly enhance project-level cash flows and improve internal rates of return (IRR) for property owners. We assist in structuring ground lease transactions that allow property owners to unlock the value of their land while retaining operational control over their assets. This approach offers access low-cost capital, improve financial flexibility, and optimize the performance of your real estate investments.
A key advantage of a ground lease is the ability to maintain long-term operating control of the asset. While the land is sold, the property owner retains control over the building and its operations. This enables the property owner to continue benefiting from the property’s income streams and appreciation in value, while also enjoying the enhanced yields made possible by the infusion of low-cost capital from the ground lease.
C-PACE Financing (Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy) is a powerful tool that allows developers and property owners to finance energy-efficient upgrades and sustainable building practices with ease.
C-PACE financing provides up to 100% of the funding needed for qualifying energy-efficient renovations and new construction projects. This includes improvements such as HVAC systems, insulation, solar panels, energy-efficient windows, and water conservation measures, among others. By covering the full cost of these upgrades, C-PACE financing enables property owners to implement sustainable practices without the burden of upfront capital outlays. Instead, the cost is repaid over time through a special assessment attached to the property, which can be spread out over an extended period, often up to 20 or 30 years.

This allows greater ease for business owners to finance a significant portion of their real estate purchase or improvement project. This program is particularly well-suited for owner-occupied properties, where the business operates within the purchased or renovated space.

This extended duration allows investors to lock in low interest rates for the life of the loan, providing a predictable and stable debt service over many years.
