Case studies
With climate awareness rising among homebuyers, one of America’s largest home builders sought to map out resilient locations for future housing starts. But it lacked robust data correlating land price forecasts to climate stability. In order to widen the footprint of its land banking strategy and anticipate the next set of fast-growing residential locations, AlphaGeo was used to identify the variables that will most influence liveability and property values. We analyzed both climate models and socio-economic trends, and ranked the counties where land was currently undervalued relative to their potential for appreciation. Our client was able to act on these arbitrage opportunities, deploying capital into geographies of high forecasted demand.
CapitaLand’s US investment team sought a comparative analysis of multiple high-growth cities for the industrial sector based on climate risk. CapitaLand commissioned AlphaGeo to produce a detailed study of scenarios for property valuations for a major commercial hub highlighting growth prospects for the industrial sector based on multiple climate, economic, and demographic trajectories.
ACRE, a real estate investment company, collaborated with AlphaGeo to generate climate-driven valuations for a specific subset of its multi-family property funds. ACRE’s ESG investment team shared location data for key multi-family properties across the United States, and AlphaGeo utilized this data to provide Climate Price™ forecasts and Resilience Index™ scores. These forecasts and scores enabled ACRE to incorporate climate considerations into their valuation process, allowing them to assess the potential impact of climate change on their multi-family properties and make informed investment decisions.
Breevast took strong positions in distressed commercial properties in prime US cities after the 2008 financial crisis and sought to reassess its intended hold period in light of the Covid-19 pandemic. Breevast shared pertinent financial data related to the acquisition price and operational information such as occupancy and yield. AlphaGeo used these data points to refine the development of multiple valuation scenarios for each asset for Breevast’s investment committee to consider.
