AI-Driven Location Risk Summaries in CRE: Faster, Smarter, and More Actionable

Crime, flood, and environmental issues don’t just cause headaches; they can sink deals, scare lenders and surprise your investors at the worst possible time.

The problem? Gathering this data is slow, fragmented and confusing. Ever tried explaining a FEMA map or a string of environmental acronyms to a client? Not fun!

That’s why we built the AI-Driven Location Risk Summary Report inside TheAnalyst® PRO.

Why Location Risk Matters

•  Close smarter, faster deals - lenders and investors trust you when risks are clear.

•  Save time - no more chasing data across five sites.

•  Stand out - you’re not just presenting risks, you’re presenting solutions.

Three Risk Categories That Matter

Crime Risk

TheAnalyst® PRO reports both personal and property crime, comparing each index against national averages.

•  Impact: Crime levels directly influence tenant demand, rental rates, insurance premiums and cap rates.

•  AI Recommendation: Reports of elevated crime levels, and provides guidance on how to proceed.

Flood Risk

FEMA Flood Map designations are integrated directly into the report.

Impact: Flood zones affect insurance requirements, premiums, financing, liability and property safety.

AI Recommendation: Alerts of high-risk flood zones, and advises possible next steps.

Environmental Risk

Our exclusive environmental database identifies nearby facilities with records of concern. Data is prioritized by distance:

•  0.25 miles: Critical radius used in Phase I Environmental Reports

•  0.5 miles: Extended buffer for potential migration risks

Impact: These factors can delay transactions, limit financing, or create long-term liabilities.

AI Recommendation: High-risk facilities are called out, and guidance on further investigation is provided.

From Raw Data to Action Plan in Minutes

Here’s the difference:

•  Instead of drowning in stats, you get crime, flood, and environmental risks clearly explained.

•  Instead of guessing, you get AI-powered recommendations that spell out your next steps.

•  Instead of hours of digging, you get it all in under 10 minutes.

It’s not just a report — it’s a client-ready narrative that elevates your credibility and shows you’re on top of every risk that matters.
