Why John Burns Real Estate Consulting?
- Excellent reputation. John Burns Real Estate Consulting provides well thought-out, unbiased recommendations and advice, always internally reviewed by a peer to give you the highest level of confidence.
- Experienced team. Our Consulting group is led by a senior management team. Our team average several decades of experience.
- National footprint. Many of our clients operate throughout the country. We are one of the largest and most geographically diverse real estate consulting groups.
- Comprehensive peer review. Our goal, if our client’s schedule allows, is to peer review every report before its release. A senior team member not involved in the report’s production reviews every aspect of the study—from data through conclusions—and independently evaluates the work product. We check facts, calculations, logic, graphics, and English to produce the highest-quality report possible.
- Excellent service. Often times our clients do not have full control over timing for their deals and the Consulting team has a knack for making miracles happen.
- Value. Since we focus on housing and analyze a plethora of data each month, we get to the right answer quickly.
