Most real estate support services fall into one of two categories. One is accessible but unstructured. The other is highly strategic but rarely suited to project-specific decisions.
Every ARC Start user receives a private dashboard to manage their evaluation process. From this dashboard, users can complete feasibility tools, revisit answers, and submit for expert review when ready, all at their own pace.
📄 DIY Tools
Templates and checklists are easy to access, but they provide no real structure, risk validation, or decision support.
🧭 ARC Start
Created for the space between, ARC Start gives real estate teams the structure to evaluate feasibility and permitting strategy, with access to expert input only when it's needed.
🏢 Full-Service Advisory
Strategic consulting firms bring deep value, but are built for institutional clients and multi-phase portfolios. They rarely align with focused or time-sensitive project needs.
Many real estate teams enter the early stages of planning without structured support. Decisions are often made informally, relying on past experience, generic resources, or incomplete data. When those inputs fall short, the typical next step is full-service consulting. While effective, this model is built for complex portfolios and long-term strategies, not project-specific decision-making.
ARC Start is designed for the space in between. It provides a structured framework to evaluate feasibility, assess permitting risk, and define early-stage direction. For business owners and investors who need reliable insight before moving forward, ARC Start offers disciplined support at the project level without the commitment of a full advisory engagement.
ARC Start offers three engagement paths to help you evaluate feasibility, manage risk, and access advisory insight based on your project’s complexity.
Evaluate Your Project with Structured Feasibility Tools
Use a structured set of feasibility tools to help you evaluate your site, risk factors, compliance path, and basic financial assumptions.
Your dashboard allows you to complete tools at your own pace and revisit answers as needed.
Get 1:1 Feedback on Your Project
Submit your completed toolkit for advisor review. You’ll receive written feedback highlighting strengths, risks, and recommended next steps, followed by a one-on-one video call to talk through the findings.
Submit your tools and manage advisor feedback directly through your dashboard.
Get Input From a Full Advisor Panel
After completing the Advisor review, upgrade to Pro for a full three-advisor panel. You’ll get consolidated recommendations, a Go/No-Go summary, and a follow-up call to finalize your next move.
View advisor panel recommendations and track next steps inside your dashboard.
“The tools helped us organize our project, but the real value came from the advisor review. They flagged two issues that would’ve cost us thousands.”
