Locational Analysis

Searching for just the right location for your business or next real estate investment, let us help. The analytical team at New West Consulting has developed an exceptional combination of commercial real estate knowledge and technical expertise in advanced computer mapping software (Geographic Information System, or GIS).

At New West Consulting it is our goal to provide small business owners and investors with sophisticated, yet affordable location analysis studies. Instead of relying on guesswork or following the decisions of others, our team can provide you with a comprehensive array of customized “tools” to improve your site selection process or optimize your existing business operations.

Let us assist you by:

  • Delineating trade area boundaries, including primary and secondary average drive-times 
  • Evaluating primary site characteristics versus alternative locations
  • Identifying the optimal location for a new or relocated business facility
  • Identifying business location(s) that minimize employee commute times 
  • Strategic optimization of store locations to improve overall market penetration while minimizing cannibalization
    Identify real estate market areas down to the building-cluster level, according to highly customizable selection criteria; including occupancy trends, changes in rental rates, new construction activity, over-supply situations, average selling prices and/or sales activity.

New West Consulting also offers customized consulting solutions that integrate locational analysis into a larger analysis that includes a market studies component and highest and best use analysis. Our extensive use of spatial modeling software allows us to provide exceptional market insight at costs that small investors and business owners can easily afford.
