America‘s Commercial Real Estate Show

Data paralysis is a massive hurdle in commercial real estate. When critical market analysis, demographic shifts, and property comps live entirely on flat spreadsheets, it is incredibly difficult to visualize location-intensive trends and tell a compelling story to clients. In this episode, host Michael Bull sits down with CCIM's Ben Wilson to discuss the major rebrand and massive evolution of "Site to Do Business" into the all-new IntelliSite. They dive into how modern GIS mapping, global data integration, and built-in AI models are completely reshaping how brokers, appraisers, and developers make real estate decisions. What you'll learn in this episode: The Death of the Spreadsheet: How advanced GIS mapping and visual infographics are replacing traditional spreadsheets to tell better market stories. Mapping the "Silver Tsunami" & Suburban Sprawl: How to analyze demographic variables (across 150+ countries) to spot peripheral growth and suburban rings around primary markets. AI Integration & Void Analysis: A look at the new natural-language AI assistant and how to run a void analysis to find exactly which tenants or medical services are missing from a market. Advanced Tools for Brokers & Appraisers: How to leverage Database USA for tenant targeting, use built-in financial calculators, and easily map subject properties against custom comp databases. Get the cutting-edge tech intel you need to streamline your workflows and find hidden opportunities in any market.
