Owned or leased, real estate is generally a major categorical expense for health care providers, trailing only operations and employee overhead.

In-house real estate teams often struggle to find the time and capacity to properly evaluate important real estate decisions that can drive significant cost savings or value creation for the organization, including:

  • Should we own or lease space?

  • Should we lease out space we own?
  • Where should we build a new ambulatory care center?
