Build a reviewable CRE AI business case by separating task capacity, review and rework, costs, actual cash effects and opportunity evidence. Includes a clearly synthetic negative scenario with an explicit work-hours denominator.
What's Inside
Capacity, Cash and Opportunity Are Different
Distinguish available hours, observed cash effects and downstream opportunities; avoid double counting.
AI Use Cases Across the CRE Lifecycle
Define accepted outputs for sourcing, screening, underwriting and memo drafting without unsupported client metrics.
A Five-Part Calculation Framework
Use explicit workload assumptions and costs, inspect a fresh synthetic negative scenario and separate cash-return arithmetic.
Implementation Roadmap
Establish a baseline, bounded trial, review owner and acceptance conditions; no standard timeline or return promise.
Getting Started Checklist
Ten questions to identify the task, denominator, costs, evidence, overlap and stop conditions.
