The addition of this hand-picked, dedicated in-house valuation and advisory team allows for the provision of thorough market comps and deal analysis, supplementing the quality of information available to our clients and colleagues, with specialists in all commercial property types and niche markets.” Several of the Southwest team members participate in NKF Valuation & Advisory national specialty practice groups including multihousing, hospitality, gaming and leisure, self-storage, retail/regional malls, senior housing, healthcare, data centers, mission critical environments and property tax.

The area’s robust economy will continue to outpace the national average for some time to come, providing opportunities for ownership of all property types. NKF’s SW Valuation & Advisory group is a value add for our local, regional and national clients.” Comments Previous Post Camelback Pointe offers permanent supportive housing for homeless Most Recent Articles iPhone X new facial recognition raises concerns 10 hottest sectors in Arizona's tech community for 2018 Ducey emphasizes education in optimistic fiscal 2019 budget Javelina launches online class to help you run a winning political campaign UnitedHealthcare introduces new digital health resources Categories Awards & Events AZ Big Media events Networking events Business News Aerospace Banking Bioscience Business Angels Nonprofit Business Leaders CEO Series Newsmakers Women In Business Consumer News Economic Development Associations Economy Education Energy Environment Financial Management Government Healthcare Hospitality Jobs Law Marketing Mobile Politics Small business Social Media Special Series Sports Technology Transportation Tourism Weather Workforce Lifestyle Accommodations Adventures Automobiles Consumer news Movie reviews New products Product Reviews Date Night Family fun Fashion Health & fitness Home & Design Interior Design Kitchen & bath Landscaping Restaurants Resorts Shopping Spas Things to do Travel Real Estate Big Deals Brokerage Industrial Investment Office Retail Commercial Real Estate Architecture Building Green Construction Senior Living Site Selection Education Hospitality Medical Mixed-Use Multifamily New to Market Property Management Residential Real Estate Blogs About Us & OpportunitiesAbout AZ Big Media Our Team Write For Us Internships Careers Professional Association Partners AdvertisingLogos & Media Kits Digital Ad Specs Print Ad Specs ABL & PTK Print Ad Specs Home & Design Print Ad Specs Upload Your Artwork Legal & TechnicalPrivacy Policy Content Disclaimer Advertisers & Sponsors Disclaimer Event Disclaimer Terms and Conditions Newsletter Signup Please ignore this text box.
