CONTRACTUAL

Responsibilities, authority, scope, compensation and operating requirements are clearly established in writing.


SCALABLE

Structure the relationship around a single property, development, portfolio or enterprise operation.


PREDICTABLE

Engagements can be structured using monthly, project-based, portfolio or enterprise compensation.


INDEPENDENT

Your company remains your company. Urbanista provides the brokerage leadership and regulatory infrastructure defined by the engagement.


ENGAGEMENT STRUCTURES


MONTHLY RETAINER

Ongoing Broker-of-Record and qualifying-broker supervision for defined operations.

MORE THAN A NAME ON A LICENSE

Urbanista does not provide passive “license rental.”

A qualifying broker carries genuine regulatory and supervisory responsibilities. Every engagement must provide Urbanista with the authority, access, information and operational controls necessary to properly perform those responsibilities.


The objective is simple: become the brokerage infrastructure behind your business—not compete for your customers.


ENTERING THE FLORIDA MARKET?

For established real-estate companies expanding into Florida, Urbanista can evaluate and structure the brokerage infrastructure required to support appropriately licensed operations.

Enter Florida with experienced brokerage leadership already considered.

Coordinated brokerage, title and closing services for investors, international clients, portfolio owners and sophisticated sellers.

 

Complex real estate transactions require more than a contract. Multiple properties, business entities, foreign ownership, financing requirements, tax considerations, title matters and accelerated timelines demand experienced professionals working toward one objective.

ONE COORDINATED TEAM.

Foreign & International Clients

 

Real Estate Without Borders.

International real estate transactions may involve additional documentation, ownership structures, identity requirements, banking logistics, tax withholding, currency transfers and remote closing procedures.

1031 Tax-Deferred Exchanges

A properly structured Section 1031 exchange may allow an eligible investor to defer recognition of certain gains when qualifying investment or business real property is exchanged for qualifying replacement property.

Urbanista can assist with the real estate strategy surrounding the disposition and acquisition, including:

 

  • Relinquished-property disposition strategy
  • Replacement-property searches
  • Downtown Orlando acquisition opportunities
  • Portfolio valuation and market analysis
  • Property tours and due diligence
  • Contract negotiation
  • Closing-timeline coordination
  • Communication with the qualified intermediary and professional advisors

Because Section 1031 exchanges involve strict statutory deadlines, investors should consult a qualified intermediary, CPA and attorney before selling the relinquished property.

  • Developers and business entities
