Keys to success for the company will include:

  1. Maintain an untarnished reputation in the community.
  2. Provide high quality client sensitive service.
  3. Competitive pricing.
  4. Flexible hours.
  5. Excellence in fulfilling the promise–completely confidential, reliable, trustworthy expertise and information.

Market Analysis Summary

CorbelArch Real Estate Inspectors will focus on two markets within the industry, the residential segment (including apartment buildings) and the commercial segment (including buildings used for professional purposes).

The commercial market participants currently need competent inspection firms to provide services to themselves or their clients. Since our inspection findings can significantly impact a business’ profitability, it is absolutely crucial for our service to be accurate and complete.

Although the above is also true for the residental owner, quality and meeting the individual needs/wants of the client while maintaining the Realtor’s transaction come first in the residential segment. The inspector must be willing to be more flexible and willing to listen and work directly with the client.

Over the past decade a number of new trends have been observed in this industry. This includes the steady growth of the local economy, the increased percentage of property transactions that require inspections and the requirement and escalation of credentials needed to be licensed to perform inspections.

4.1 Market Segmentation

CorbelArch Real Estate Inspectors will focus on two markets within the industry, the residential segment (including apartment buildings) and the commercial segment which includes buildings used for professional purposes. The company can handle any size building that needs inspection or management services. It is the goal of the company to eventually have approximately one-third of all business coming from the commercial segment, since this generates the greatest cash flow. Furthermore, this segment has the lowest percentage of variable costs. The residential segment is considered to be the company’s cash cow. Even during the slow winter months, the company can expect to have a several residential contracts.

4.3.1 Competition and Buying Patterns

This industry is somewhat seasonal. The busiest times are during the summer months where it is easy for a company to become so engaged that it must turn down opportunities. During the winter months businesses must focus on service diversification and marketing to maintain consistent level of work.
