The sponsors actually raising. Mapped by what they buy.

Any GP-side firm that raises and deploys capital into CRE assets – institutional GPs, value-add syndicators, family offices doing direct deals, public REITs, PE-affiliated real-estate platforms, and active owner-operators. The Edition excludes one-off LLCs that filed once and disappeared, plus passive LPs (those are the forthcoming LP Edition's scope).

Yes, for 606 of 698 firms – approximately 1,427 named contacts in total. Researched-profile contacts have email domains confirmed against the firm’s own website. Directory contacts are drawn from the practitioner relationship database and current at time of capture – verify before outreach. The remaining 92 firms carry named GP leadership and the firm website; direct phone and email were not available at press time.

A researched profile is a primary-source firm dossier with citable AUM (or portfolio scale), named GP leadership, fund structure, and notable deals. A higher bar than the Lender Edition: a researched profile requires at least three citable data points, including either a traceable recent acquisition or disposition, a confirmed multi-deal track record, or a named principal with at least two transactions in the prior 24 months. All 152 researched profiles in this Edition clear that bar. A directory firm has its identity confirmed by a corporate email domain shared across multiple named contacts from the practitioner relationship database – the firm is real and active, but a full primary-source dossier has not been compiled. Directory contacts should be verified independently before outreach.

Yes – where publicly disclosed. Public REITs and large institutional GPs report AUM in 10-Ks or earnings releases; private GPs disclose via ADV filings, state-pension LP records, and press releases on fund closes. LP-specific commitment data (which LP committed how much) stays outside scope – that belongs to enterprise institutional-commitment databases at $10K+/yr price points. The Edition prices for the GP-side practitioner who needs the firm-level map without those databases.

Sponsors are GP-side – the firms that source and operate deals. The forthcoming LP Edition will map the capital side: pension funds, endowments, family offices on commitments, and dedicated CRE allocators. Most practitioners need one or the other; some need both, which is why the two Editions share schemas.

Yes – 12 months of quarterly refreshes at no extra cost. Fund closes, leadership changes, capital-structure changes, and harvest events are tracked in the changelog. The download link replaces in place; no re-purchase needed.
