Frequently Asked Questions
What advisory services does Neil Sinclair provide?
Neil Sinclair provides two primary advisory domains: Real Estate Advisory (for REITs, listed property vehicles, family offices, and institutions) and PropTech Advisory (helping PropTech founders navigate landlord adoption and institutional distribution). Both are grounded in understanding that real estate is controlled by long-term owners, institutions, and families whose incentives must be understood for anything to scale.
What is the difference between Real Estate Advisory and PropTech Advisory?
Real Estate Advisory focuses on traditional real estate operations: REIT formation, public company governance, institutional portfolio strategy, distressed assets, and capital markets. PropTech Advisory helps technology founders understand and navigate the real estate industry, designing pilot programs that scale, building ROI models institutions accept, and avoiding adoption traps.
