We understand the needs of governments

Plante Moran CRESA, an affiliate of Plante & Moran, has the comprehensive expertise to advise you on all of your real estate decisions as well as offer real estate advisory services to assist with economic development.

Because we have engineers, architects, and CPAs, who are experienced in real estate and focused on serving governments, we are uniquely qualified to assist you in all aspects of the planning and implementing government facility projects.

To support your economic development issues, our real estate advisory services can draw on our experience helping businesses as site selection consultants. We can assess your community and help you decide the kinds of businesses you might attract. We can also help you decide on incentives to increase your position in a competitive market.

If you seek the advice of our real estate advisory team, we can promise to offer a solid plan that will help you gain constituent support and obtain financing.

If it is a building or renovation project, we can provide project management services through all phases including design, construction, and occupancy. Always our goal is to keep the project on budget and on time.

As your trusted advisor, we are your advocate and do not take a financial interest in any aspect of a real estate project. With that independence comes freedom from conflicting interests and relationships.
