Cresa from Nophin (YC W22) is an AI screening analyst that automates multifamily deal screening and diligence processes. Today, to screen a multifamily deal, acquisition teams manually import rent rolls and operating statements and conduct market research for comps before running assumptions to see if a deal fits their criteria. Cresa automates the entire process. It uses your preferred acquisition model to screen deals, analyze documents, conduct market research, and generate detailed reports, allowing acquisition teams to focus on high-potential investments. Congrats on the launch, Weeks Mensah and Kwadwo Nyarko! ?? https://lnkd.in/gsNpVchM

We’re thrilled to introduce Cresa to the world! Cresa is an AI Analyst designed to streamline multifamily and commercial real estate deal screening. Today, acquisition teams manually import rent rolls, analyze operating statements, and conduct market research for comps before running assumptions to see if a deal fits their criteria. Cresa automates this entire process. As a fine-tuned, multimodal agent, Cresa manages key workflows for acquisition teams 24/7, enabling them to focus on high-potential investments. It can screen deals using acquisition models, analyze deal documents, conduct market research, and generate comprehensive reports. Back in 2023, we set out to build an end-to-end underwriting platform for CRE investors. While users were paying for the product, our daily active users started trending down. It became clear that we weren’t building something users truly needed. With a short runway and morale at an all-time low after two pivots, we were days away from giving up. But we stayed the course, doubling down on user interviews. Through those conversations, we uncovered a critical pain point: the bottleneck at the top of the funnel, where investors waste valuable time screening deals that don’t meet their criteria. Cresa is like having a super analyst on your team, quickly filtering out irrelevant deals and accelerating due diligence on the ones that matter. Nophin (YC W22) is excited to launch Cresa and help acquisition teams screen more deals faster. Try it out by generating a free rent comp report — no sign-up or prior experience required.
