Banks - Investment Firms

You shouldn't have to put your money on the line -- if the bottom line keeps moving. Banks and investors who are providing construction loans, equity dollars or other financing for land-development projects need independent third-party evaluations of project status, budget, construction completion costs and risks. Moote can give you that and more. With our database of over 4,800 projects in 15 states – we have the critical information you need to make your investment a success!

The Moote Group can also assist you in the evaluation of land use and project approvals, conditions of the site/improvements, and cost implications of both partially built and completed assets. We can provide the financial data in your format, or use one of our standardized data formats. Based on either a task-by-task ("tiered") or whole-project approach, you will be provided with data you need to assess risks, evaluate assets, and anticipate costs, should you choose to make improvements to and/or complete any of the assets.


Brokers - Appraisers - Land Owners

As brokers and appraisers, you are the oil that keeps the machinery of real estate running smoothly. To do your jobs in expediting the sale or purchase of land, you need to have in hand the same information as all other parties without bogging down the due-diligence period. Or, if you’re a land owner handing your own real estate deal, you need to know exactly what your property is worth before you sell it. That’s where Moote can step in as a reliable and independent third party – offering complete and credible estimates on costs to develop and whether a purchase or sale makes good business sense.

We’re here to welcome you back into the marketplace and to help you understand the real costs and the potential savings of your proposed project so that you’ll make the right decision when it comes time to buy.
