Boxwood Means, LLC, a leading national provider of commercial evaluations and data analytics for the small-cap commercial real estate market, announced that it was named a Top Finance Influencer in the CRE industry.
Boxwood Means said it was recognized for two vital roles that the company plays in the small commercial property arena: the firm’s technology-intensive platform for speedy, cost effective procurement and delivery of its commercial evaluation reports, and its important contributions to proprietary research in the small-cap CRE market.
The $200 billion small-balance commercial loan origination market is notable for its competitiveness and time-to-close sensitivities. Boxwood’s automated platform enables more than 200 commercial lenders to quickly and easily order and retrieve completed reports and track order status. The product has powered the firm’s 30 percent volume growth in each of the last three years, the company said.
The honor was presented by Real Estate Forum, whose Top Finance Influencer list honors the people and firms that have shaped the CRE market through their innovations, best practices and/or deal-making, the company said in a press release.
“We are excited to receive acknowledgment by Real Estate Forum for the groundbreaking products we’ve developed and refined over the past 16 years,” Randy Fuchs, a Boxwood principal and co-founder, said in the release. “As the need for technology-enhanced asset valuation and market-monitoring tools in the small-balance lending market grows, Boxwood will continue to drive innovation and create additional value for our clients.”
