Commercial Real Estate Performance Benchmarking

Benchmark Manager is an add-on to ARGUS Intelligence that lets you compare the performance of your CRE asset, portfolio, or fund to market benchmarks and break down results into allocation vs. selection effects, with yield and cashflow driver insights.

This performance information and insights can help CRE investors, fund and portfolio managers, and researchers make better asset management and investment decisions.

CRE fund and portfolio managers, asset managers, valuation professionals, and research teams who need defensible, benchmark-linked insights for decisions and reporting.

Altus’ industry-leading valuation and cashflow dataset, with support for market/segment context and recognized industry benchmarks (e.g., ODCE), plus evolving property sub-type classifications guidance.

​Yes. Benchmark Manager includes a breakdown of performance by property types and subtypes based on industry-standard categories allowing users to filter mixed portfolios to isolate performance by property (sub)types and compare it to similar properties in the same CBSA, view trends of yield and cash flow metrics at that granular level, and track how those (sub)types have performed historically. This makes it easy to see which property types are driving returns or dragging performance, pinpoint strengths, uncover underperforming segments, and back up allocation decisions with data.

Benchmark Manager standardizes performance comparisons, eliminates manual stitching of market data, and gives instant attribution to explain why results differ - accelerating and supporting investment committee preparations, LP reporting, and quarterly investor narratives.

Portfolio Manager builds dynamic portfolios and scenarios, while Benchmark Manager adds market-level comparison and attribution, showing how your assets and portfolios perform relative to the market. Many clients use both.
