The REFI US Awards reward real estate private equity funds and service providers for outstanding performance and overall excellence.
“We understand the unique challenges of real estate investing in harnessing very disparate data for critical risk and performance insights,” said Haresh Patel, CEO of Mercatus. “We purposefully built a modern data-driven architecture that starts at the site- and asset-level and then rolls up to fund/portfolio levels. We believe it’s the only way to truly understand and measure each investment. It’s very rewarding to be recognized by REFI US for the innovation we’ve brought to this sector.”
REFI US award winners are selected through a rigorous two-stage judging process using both performance metrics as well as qualitative factors. Factors used by judges in the “PropTech” category include:
- How the platform is used and how widely it is used – 25%
- Volume on the platform – 25%
- Growth over a one- and three-year period – 25%
- Value to its users and the broader commercial real estate market – 25%
