In Brief
Commercial real estate underwriting software helps acquisition teams turn broker materials, rent rolls, T-12s, OMs, comps, and market data into an investment model. The strongest tools preserve the team's existing Excel workbook, cite source documents, flag conflicts, and create a reviewable deal record instead of forcing analysts into a generic model.
The buyer question is not whether a tool can extract text from a PDF. It is whether the system can turn a full deal room into the model, fields, checks, and review workflow your team already trusts.
Primer is built for CRE acquisition teams that want to keep their underwriting model while giving every serious opportunity the same AI-assisted workflow: gather documents, reconcile data, populate the model, create the deal record, and retain clean acquisition memory.

FAQ
Commercial real estate underwriting software helps teams analyze acquisition opportunities by extracting and structuring deal data, calculating key metrics, and preparing investment models. Modern AI systems also cite sources, reconcile conflicting documents, and preserve a team's existing Excel model.
Primer is designed around the acquisition workflow, not just document extraction. It maps deal data into the team's model, creates a reviewable deal record, and preserves data for future comp and pipeline work.
Most institutional teams should not replace Excel. Their model is often the system of record. Primer is built to populate and support that model rather than force a vendor-owned workbook.
