Top AI Tools for Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)

Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) manage billions in assets, often using spreadsheets from 1998. But with high interest rates squeezing margins, efficiency is the new alpha.

Here are the AI tools modernizing the REIT stack.

1. TopHap (The Location Intelligence)

Best For: Market research. Why: It visualizes massive datasets (demographics, weather, construction permits) on a map. AI helps predict path of growth.

2. Skyline AI (The Underwriting Engine)

Best For: Deal analysis. Why: Uses proprietary data to estimate asset values and rental yields before you even visit the property.

3. o11 (The Deal Execution)

Best For: Automated Offering Memos and Rent Roll Analysis. Why: RE deals involve massive amounts of documents (Leases, Appraisals, OM’s). o11 can:

• Read 50 commercial leases and extract a Rent Roll into Excel.
• Draft the Investment Committee Memo for a new acquisition.

4. Cherre (The Data Lake)

Best For: Connecting disparate data. Why: Real estate data is messy (Yardi, MRI, public records). Cherre connects it all into a single “Source of Truth” for AI models to run on.

Conclusion

REITs that use AI to underwrite faster will see more deals and bid more accurately.
