What we do
We specialize in providing software that assists real estate professionals
in the valuation of commercial real estate. Investment Analyst is used to comprehensively evaluate income producing property. Commercial Complete is a real estate data management system that efficiently stores information
on any real property - including general property information, sale data,
rental data, assessment data, listing data, and much more. Commercial Complete will also assist the real estate professional in preparing a Comparison Analysis and a Cost Analysis. Narrative Complete will be out soon. It is a complete word processing tool with built-in
capabilities that real estate professionals need. A property database and
income analysis capabilities are incorporated into Narrative Complete.
Input, Output, Reliability
In the end, screen design is what makes software easy to use. Report design is what makes the product valuable to you. Intelligence that is built into the software to lead you through the inputs, to check for calculation errors and to prevent invalid assumptions is what makes software reliable. Input. Output. Reliability. Only software that is written in native Windows programming languages by skilled software engineers can give you professional, easy to use input screens and presentation quality reports. You might say that our products are "handmade." They take longer to create, but the quality is apparent.
The fact is, we often take several months to design a single input screen - not because the programming is difficult (although some of it is). The real difficulty is to make it feel right to you. Until each screen fits like a glove, the software is not ready to release.
Our latest software, Narrative Complete, follows in this tradition. Like all of our software, it was designed from scratch, with you in mind. Most of our competitors use "templates" based upon the Excel spreadsheet program or a packaged database program. At $79.95, they may be "better than nothing." But the truth is that they are not up to the job.
Designed to work in Windows XP and the Vista operating systems, our software incorporates the latest in programming technology. Our products are always positioned for the future. As the Windows operating system changes, and as system hardware becomes faster, software applications must be updated to maintain compatibility. We do this regularly and have since 1987.
Who Uses Investment Analyst
Today, our products are used by clients in all fifty states and several
foreign countries. Members of all major real estate appraisal organizations
use our software. So do assessors, review appraisers, government agencies
(federal, state and local), financial institutions, CPAs, insurance companies,
real estate agents, developers, investors and property owners.
Please take some time to look at our offerings. If you have any questions,
do not hesitate to call us at 800-884-1630. We hope to hear from you soon.

Investment Analyst
Reliable Income Analysis
Investment Analyst has been used by real estate professionals for more
than 20 years to analyze and value income producing real estate, applying
advanced mathematical techniques. It calculates the value, based upon the
yield requirements and projections of the analyst. Financing, closing costs,
selling expenses, income growth and property appreciation are among the
many factors considered. Holding periods can range between 1 and 60 years.
Reports can be printed, pasted or saved to an Excel spreadsheet, PDF file,
or RTF file. Reports can be merged into a word processing document. If
you have Narrative Complete, the reports can be inserted directly into
your narrative reports.

Commercial Complete
Commercial Complete Data Management
The most complete real estate database tool available. Flexible, customizable,
and powerful, this tool is designed for real estate professionals who need
quick access to real estate data. Search and sort by any field. Apply filters
to look only at properties of a certain type, a range of sale prices, or
year sold. The combinations are unlimited. Look at the data in various
different ways. Perform sales comparison analyses and build the cost approach
for a property.

Narrative Complete
It will change the way that you work
You are not finished until the report is done or the proposal is sent to the client. Often, this is the most difficult task of all. Not only the writing, but the copying and pasting of the many support documents that you have prepared.
Whether you are an appraiser, an agent/broker, an assessor, or any other real estate professional, your product is real estate. The majority of your written output revolves around real estate. It makes sense to use a word processor that is designed around real estate. The big guys in word processing have fantastic products - if graphics or marketing or publishing is your business. But frankly, they do not help a lot when it comes to automating a real estate professional's work.
Narrative Complete will make your work go a lot more smoothly. We took the powerful database capabilities of Commercial Complete and the reliable income analysis power of Investment Analyst and incorporated them into Narrative Complete.
Use your own wording in your reports and other documents. Change it on
the fly when you need to, just like you do now. Design your documents once
and then use them again and again. Just connect a new property record and/or
income analysis to the document and Narrative Complete takes care of the
rest.
This is not form filling software or an MS Word add-in. It is a complete
word processing program with a real estate database and income analysis
capabilities built in. Like all of our products, Narrative Complete is
a stand-alone product designed from scratch. You do not need another word
processor installed on your system.
