A trusted advisor
to clients nationwide
For more than 20 years, clients have relied on S. Patz & Associates for one thing above all: analysis they can trust. The firm is independent, conflict-free, and senior-led on every engagement.
Firm leadership is directly involved at every stage, ensuring consistent quality and a single point of accountability. No handoff to junior analysts mid-engagement.
We have no affiliations with developers or lenders. Our recommendations follow the data, not external interests. Clients receive analysis they can rely on in any setting.
Two decades of compiled market data enable benchmarking and competitive analysis unavailable through standard research tools. Our databases inform every engagement.
We conduct direct on-site fieldwork and interview property managers and owners directly. Our analysis is grounded in primary research, not just secondary data sources.
Deep working relationships across development, lending, nonprofit, and public sectors. Our network of industry contacts strengthens every study we undertake.
The majority of our work comes from clients who have retained us before. That track record of repeat business reflects the trust we have built over more than two decades.
