An owner-led market

A massive market, still run by individuals.

Individuals, not institutions, hold most of America’s real estate, and most still run the numbers without the tools the big firms take for granted. That’s who BRIC is for.

The BRIC principle

Lower costs. Higher values. By design.

Brokers, buyers, and service providers all compete on this platform. For you, never at you. The result is the same in every workflow: less leaving the building, more staying with the owner.

When you sell

Brokers compete for the listing. Buyers compete on the price.

Broker competition drives your cost down. Buyer competition drives your price up. And real-time visibility happens only when you raise your hand, never automatically.

When you operate

Pooled benchmarks expose overpaying, line by line.

Taxes, insurance, water, electric, management, repairs, each cost judged against buildings like yours. When a line runs hot, vetted providers compete to win the work, not the other way around.

Insurance +14% vs city Water −4% vs city Taxes at median
Together

Every owner's data sharpens everyone's benchmark.

One owner guessing is a feeling. Thousands of owners pooling anonymized numbers is leverage, published in weekly batches, never below a floor of five, never tied to your address.

Start with the right view

See the dashboard built for you.

Owners control the property workspace, built to cut what’s bleeding the building and grow what it’s worth. Brokers get a cleaner professional workflow when an owner shares a property or runs their own valuation pipeline.

Your data is yours. Sharing is always opt-in, property by property.

One property, two live views.

The same property file looks different to each side. The owner sees everything and stays private by default; when they’re ready, one switch shares a live, read-only view with their broker: no exported spreadsheets, no stale copies.

Cap RateValuation

The annual return a property would produce if you bought it in cash. It’s how buyers turn income into a price.

Cap Rate=NOI ÷ Value
$120,000 NOI ÷ 5.5% cap = $2,181,818
Nudge the cap to 6.0% and the same income is worth $2.0M. A half-point swings value $180K.

Common questions

Your data, your call, answered.

The honest answers owners want before they start: privacy, cost, and control.

Is my property data actually private?
Your workspace isn’t visible to brokers or other users. Nothing you enter is shared with a broker as you go. A broker only sees a property when you choose to share it, and you can revoke that access anytime.
Do I have to work with a broker to use this?
No. You can value a property, benchmark expenses, and build an offering memorandum entirely on your own. Sharing with a broker is always optional.
What does it cost to get started?
You can run a valuation, benchmark your expenses, and get your value range at no cost. Paid plans add saved properties, the deeper financial tools (debt and leverage, DSCR, cash-on-cash, 1031 modeling) and OM tools, so you only pay once the workspace is doing real work for you.
How accurate is the valuation?
It’s a defensible income-approach range (a method lenders and buyers recognize) built from your real numbers and pressure-tested against market benchmarks. A figure you can stand behind, not a black-box estimate. It’s a strong starting point for pricing decisions, not a substitute for a formal appraisal.
What happens to my data if I leave?
Your data is yours to export anytime, and you can delete your workspace whenever you like. How your information is stored and handled is covered in our privacy policy and terms.
Who is BRIC built for?
Owners of multifamily, mixed-use, and commercial property who want to understand value and organize their numbers, and the brokers, lenders, and other professionals they choose to bring in.
Pricing

Start simple. Upgrade when the workflow becomes valuable.

Three ways to use BRIC: a private workspace for owners, an advisory workflow for brokers, or one-time help with no subscription. Full pricing lives on the pricing page.

Know your number before you make a move.

Start a free valuation on your actual building, or have us walk you through its value range, the upside, and a broker-ready package on a quick call. No pressure, no obligation, and you decide what stays private.
