How We Deliver Results.

Fractional CRE CFO Engagement.

Multi-Market Family Office - Southeast U.S.

Situation

A family office managing a 14-property, $68 million portfolio across Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas was making acquisition and disposition decisions without centralized financial reporting or independent analysis. The family’s patriarch had managed the portfolio personally for 20 years, but the portfolio had grown beyond what one person could effectively oversee without professional financial support.

Approach

HAUTE onboarded the full portfolio in 30 days. Greg established monthly reporting covering all 14 assets, built custom financial models for three active acquisition opportunities, and conducted independent underwriting reviews on every deal the family evaluated.

Outcome

In the first six months, HAUTE screened 14 acquisition opportunities, advanced 3 of those target assets to closing with conservative, well-supported underwriting, and identified 2 potential acquisitions with fundamental issues that would have resulted in an estimated $4 .0 million in combined losses. Both were avoided. The family now operates with complete portfolio visibility and has not made a capital decision without HAUTE’s independent analysis since engagement.

Growing Private Investors - Texas.

Situation

A high-net-worth investor with a $32 million portfolio of retail and industrial properties was preparing to double his portfolio through a series of 1031 exchanges. He had no independent financial advisor and was relying on broker opinions and his CPA’s general guidance.

Approach

HAUTE provided monthly financial oversight, pre-commitment analysis on each exchange candidate, and strategic guidance on capital allocation and financing structure.

Outcome

Over 12 months, the investor successfully completed 4 acquisitions totaling $29 million, avoided 2 properties with unfavorable lease rollover profiles, and optimized financing terms that saved an estimated $340,000 in annual debt service costs. Portfolio grew to over $61 million with improved risk diversification.

Pre-Decision Review Engagement.

Acquisition Review - Mixed-Use Property, South Florida.

Situation

An investor was under contract to purchase a $12.4 million mixed-use property, with pricing based upon the broker’s Offering Memorandum. The projected returns were attractive. The investor wanted an independent second opinion before committing capital.

Approach

HAUTE conducted a full independent underwriting including market rent analysis, expense audit, capital expenditure assessment, and financing stress test.

Outcome

Greg’s analysis revealed projected rents were 12% above verifiable market rates, operating expenses were understated by $140,000 annually, and the property required $600,000 in deferred maintenance that was not disclosed in the OM. The deal’s actual return was 340 basis points below what was represented by the broker that prepared the OM. The investor renegotiated the purchase price, saving over $1.1 million, and closed the transaction on corrected terms.

Pre-Decision Review Engagement.

Walk-Away Recommendation - Office Property, Northeast U.S.

Situation

A Private Equity ("PE") fund was evaluating a $22 million office acquisition. The pro forma showed strong cash-on-cash returns with projected rent increases of 4% annually.

Approach

HAUTE’s independent analysis examined the submarket’s office vacancy trends, the tenant credit quality of the building’s anchor tenant, and the lease rollover exposure in years 3 through 5.

Outcome

The analysis identified that the anchor tenant (42% of building income) had a deteriorating credit profile, and the submarket had 18 months of new office supply in the pipeline. Greg recommended walking away. The fund declined the acquisition. Within 14 months, the anchor tenant vacated, and the property’s estimated value declined by approximately $7 million.

Expert Witness and Litigation Support Engagement.

Partnership Dissolution - Retail Portfolio.

Situation

A dispute between partners in a 6-property, $18 million retail portfolio resulted over valuation methodologies and alleged mismanagement. One partner retained HAUTE to provide expert testimony on the portfolio’s fair market value and the standard of care in portfolio management.

Approach

Greg reviewed five years of financial statements, lease files, capital expenditure records, and management decisions. He rendered an independent opinion on portfolio value and identified departures from standard CRE management practices.

Outcome

Greg’s testimony was cited by the arbitrator in the final ruling. The client received a settlement $2.3M higher than the opposing party’s initial offer, based on the valuation methodology Greg established.
