Real Capital Analytics (RCA) is dedicated and committed to always obtaining the best and most extensive commercial property information as possible.
Each commercial transaction is meticulously organized, standardized and reviewed internally according to strict guidelines and quality control measures. On average, each transaction is independently reviewed by two or more skilled researchers and based on two or more independent sources. The confidence in each price is categorized by pricing qualifiers depending on the source of the information. RCA also attempts to track all parties to a deal including the buyer, seller, any joint venture partners, advisors, lenders and the brokers involved.
While the transparency of investment markets and availability of information varies greatly by country and market, RCA works hard to capture all relevant information possible. The information available though RCA is far more comprehensive than what is currently available in the public domain. Although mistakes and omissions do occur, the information is updated and revised continuously.
