Special Asset Solutions
Today’s troubled market presents a unique set of challenges for financial institutions, property owners and investors. The recent recession and ongoing turmoil in the credit markets have turned a great many lenders and special services into de facto property owners as they hold nonperforming loans or recaptured properties. Instead of focusing on their core competencies, undermanned REO departments face the daunting task of identifying immediate risks and liabilities while preserving and enhancing the value of the portfolio.
The Special Asset Solutions team at NAI Global leverages our organization's expertise across the full spectrum of commercial real estate services—asset management, property management, leasing, valuation and disposition—to provide clients with easy access to all of the services an asset is likely to require throughout the ownership cycle. Our team works witinstitutions h companies of all sizes, from local, community and regional banks to the nation's largest financial and special servicers, to identify, preserve and recover value in their underperforming assets.

Asset Optimization & Recovery
NAI Keystone’s Asset Optimization program leverages NAI’s expertise in asset management, property management, workouts, leasing and disposition to help REO managers find value in their under-performing assets.
Working with companies of all sizes, from local, community and regional banks to large financial institutions, the success of the Asset Optimization process is based on NAI Global’s ability to rapidly research and investigate a lender’s current portfolio to evaluate each asset’s individual needs. With this knowledge we are able to begin the diligence necessary to create a unique plan that assesses a property’s current and potential value, analyzes local market conditions and trends and defines the long-term strategy for the lender.
Our team works with clients from the moment the distressed property or loan hits the watch list to establish goals, assess risks and objectives and create a customized reporting process. After a thorough physical inspection and discovery, the Asset Optimization team, with a single point of contact for the lender, conducts structural and environmental studies, produces financial audits and relationship (tenant and vendor) reports, establishes receivership (if necessary) and creates a go-to-market strategy. Key decisions, like buy vs. hold, loan sale vs. property sale, value-add actions and market positioning are made in tandem with the lender and the Asset Optimization team, ultimately resulting in the stabilization, repositioning /workout or disposition of the loan or REO property.
The Asset Optimization process is fast, coordinated and confidential, helping lenders to resolve underperforming assets before they become a serious issue.
Asset Management
NAI Keystone Asset Management Services provides property owners, financial institutions, loan servicers and subordinate investors with the full range of property services required throughout the asset’s life cycle.
Our experienced team can help value your investments, manage and lease your portfolio, advise on capitalization options and strategies and execute an exit plan.
With the possibility of large numbers of properties coming under ownership and management by lenders and their REO departments, accurate real-time information becomes critical. Our asset management team leverages REALTrac™ Online, NAI Global’s award-winning technology platform, to provide immediate and transparent reporting on single assets or large portfolios. This proven transaction management system keeps all relevant parties informed every step of the way, and provides 24/7 access to critical reports, and documents and information about each property or loan.

Real Estate Management Services
The NAI Global team has extensive experience managing a variety of commercial properties, including office, industrial, retail, hotel, multi-family and corporate facilities.
