Investment and deal management platform Dealpath has announced a partnership with MSCI, a provider of decision support tools and services for the global investment community, to integrate MSCI’s Real Capital Analytics (RCA) solution.
The collaboration will deliver an integrated real estate comparables (comps) data solution that enables commercial real estate investors to review sales comps from RCA within the Dealpath platform, providing market insights and streamlining deal screening, underwriting and diligence processes along with portfolio insights.
“This integration pairs one of the industry’s most widely adopted third party data sources with a critical mass of powerful proprietary data in one structured database, empowering commercial real estate investors with a competitive edge and to capitalize on technological advancements in the industry,” said Mike Sroka, CEO and cofounder of Dealpath.
Dealpath’s integration of MSCI’s RCA solution will enable firms to view and leverage all RCA sales transactions directly within Dealpath without needing to switch to a different platform and manually enter data. Users can attach relevant comps from RCA to active deals managed in Dealpath, access RCA’s extensive sales transaction data — including market analytics such as cap rates, sales volume and more — and combine these with their own internal data sources.
Dealpath’s RCA integration will accelerate deal screening and underwriting, as well as optimize deal velocity and pipeline activity, the company said. It will provide firms with a complete picture of each sales transaction available in the industry in one centralized place alongside the deal being evaluated. This includes detailed property information, transaction elements such as key dates, pricing and performance measures and all known deal contacts. Mutual Dealpath and RCA clients will have access to RCA data within Dealpath’s platform, and those who are not yet RCA clients will receive a free trial with this data enabled.
“The integration of our RCA solution with Dealpath enhances our ability to deliver bespoke transaction data and analytics to commercial real estate investors,” said Vivek Thadani, global head of real assets product management at MSCI. “We look forward to being at the forefront of industry innovation alongside Dealpath and to providing users with a leading comps data solution that will reduce manual work and enhance overall decision-making.”
The integration of MSCI’s RCA solution will launch on the Dealpath platform in early 2025.
