NAI Geis Realty Group empowers healthcare organizations with full-service commercial real estate brokerage and management services, allowing them to focus on their core mission, delivering patient care.

Many hospitals own or lease a range of properties, including medical office buildings, outpatient centers and residential facilities for staff, but often lack in-house expertise to effectively manage their portfolios. This can lead to challenges in optimizing space, maintaining compliance and maximizing financial efficiency.

NAI Geis helps them overcome these challenges with its specialization in transaction negotiation and management, site identification, lease administration, property management, and valuation services. A part of NAI Global Network—one of the world’s largest commercial real estate firms with over 325 offices—it works with major public and private healthcare systems nationwide.

“We collaborate with our clients as a unified team, upholding their standards to ensure consistent and uniform services nationwide,” says Brian C. Geis, Executive Vice President.

One of NAI Geis’ key differentiators is its ability to manage national portfolios with a personalized, local touch. It stems from the firm’s size, which allows it to meet the demands and scale of the largest healthcare systems, while also maintaining the agility needed to cater to smaller clients. The firm’s services are tailored to each client’s evolving needs, to ensure consistency with their corporate objectives. Functioning as an outsourced real estate department for its clients, NAI Geis provides local, hands-on care across all locations, to reduce inefficiencies and enhance compliance.

Property management is one of its core services. With a dedicated team of managers, maintenance technicians and support staff, NAI Geis ensures hospital campuses, medical offices, outpatient facilities and clinics are professionally managed, maintained and optimized. The program covers everything from financial oversight and lease administration to preventive maintenance, regulatory inspections and tenant relations.

Its capital market services guide healthcare property owners to make informed real estate investment decisions. With a proven track record of successful transactions, it expertly supports buying and selling various assets, including hospitals, medical buildings and ambulatory sites. For a healthcare system that leases its properties, billing and collections services are customized to streamline rent collection and accounts payable. Given the sensitive nature of financial transactions in the healthcare industry, NAI Geis places special emphasis on adherence to STARK compliance standards, providing a robust framework for effective financial management.

Lease administration and tracking are essential for organizations with large lease portfolios. NAI Geis developed a specialized technology program called LeaseTrac, which consolidates critical lease data and helps healthcare providers manage hundreds or thousands of leases. It alerts clients to critical dates, such as renewals and options, to streamline lease management and minimize the risk of missed deadlines.

For over a decade, NAI Geis has partnered with a large public healthcare client to streamline its lease administration and management processes. With a portfolio of 7,000 leases as both a tenant and a landlord, the client sought a partner to organize and manage this extensive portfolio while ensuring full alignment with their corporate standards and compliance programs. NAI Geis stepped in with a team of 20 professionals, handling the client’s lease negotiations and daily real estate needs. Through the systems and processes it developed, it successfully executes over 1,000 lease documents every year, significantly reducing the client’s reliance on in-house real estate staff.

Along with the traditional brokerage and ancillary services, NAI Geis offers other specialized valuation solutions, including FMV and BOV services. This addresses the vital need to establish independent fair market valuations when conducting transactions with other healthcare providers.

Delivering customizable real estate solutions, NAI Geis Realty Group stands out as a valuable partner for healthcare providers and property owners seeking a one-stop solution for their extensive real estate requirements.
