How Commercial Real Estate Can Leverage AI’s Capabilities

By Christine M. Walker
March 01, 2025

Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing various industries, and commercial real estate is no exception.

At the research stage, AI can evaluate multiple risk factors, such as environmental hazards, market trends, and financial performance, providing a comprehensive risk profile for the property. AI tools can analyze historical data and current market conditions to predict future trends. Additionally, AI can identify seasonal trends in the real estate market, such as periods of high or low demand. This information is valuable for timing property purchases and sales to maximize returns. By identifying patterns and correlations, AI helps investors and real estate professionals anticipate market shifts, such as price fluctuations, demand changes and vacancy trends. This comprehensive risk assessment helps investors make informed decisions and mitigate potential losses.

When performing due diligence, AI similarly offers transformative potential by enhancing the efficiency, accuracy, and comprehensiveness of the process. AI has the potential to automate and enhance various tasks through its ability to analyze a vast amount of data. For example, when evaluating title, AI can flag potential discrepancies with liens and encumbrances. AI can also cross-reference property details through use of geospatial and satellite imagery, with local zoning laws and regulations to predict potential risks. Additionally, AI can detect fraudulent activities by recognizing irregularities in transaction histories or documentation, providing an additional layer of security and reliability.
