Overcoming Common Real Estate Challenges for CA Educational Institutions

Navigate common real estate challenges for educational institutions with help from DCG Strategies. Our Certified B-Corp is the exclusive real estate services and educational workforce housing provider of the California School Boards Association (CSBA). Over the past 20 years, we’ve served more educational institutions than any other firm in the state, providing customized solutions to manage your commercial real estate needs.

Buy or Sell School Real Estate

The needs of educational institutions change with fluctuations in enrollment and state funding. Whether you need to close and consolidate property or purchase additional land to serve a growing student body, DCG Strategies can help. Our licensed brokers have experience working with the California State Education Code, 7-11 Committees, and local government to help you achieve your property sales, buying, or leasing goals. We get to know your unique objectives, providing expert real estate advice to inform your decision-making.

Uncover the True Worth and Potential of School Property

Educational facilities owners often do not know the true market value or the highest and best use of real estate assets. We understand the pressure you’re under to make choices that safeguard your institution’s legacy, maintain property use and value, achieve good academic outcomes, and support the community. We have the skills and experience to provide realistic property value estimates and keen insight into potential opportunities, offering broker opinion of value assessments and in-depth land use and feasibility analyses so you can make an informed decision.

Evaluate the Highest and Best Use of Underutilized Land

Unused or deteriorating property and buildings can feel like a growing burden. Turn these obstacles into assets. Explore potential new opportunities for adding value with help from our real estate team. We offer solutions for standalone buildings and entire districts, developing strategies to maximize property potential, manage priorities, and find solutions that benefit your school and the community. We’ll help you explore selling land, subdividing, rezoning for the development of multi-family residential or mixed-use, and more, facilitating relationships with trusted developers to help you successfully achieve your goals.

Develop Affordable Faculty and Staff Housing

High housing costs can make it difficult to attract and retain top talent. Convert surplus property into affordable homes for teachers with our Education Workforce Housing Development Services. We can help you evaluate the feasibility of adding housing on district property, navigating the complicated landscape of organizational rules and local regulations to repurpose land to meet your needs.

Make Strategic Plans for Managing District Needs

District property planning needs are complex. Our short and long-term strategic portfolio planning services ensure you can navigate changing school needs, identifying current and potential opportunities based on thorough market research and feasibility analyses. We’ll help your organization make informed decisions, from selling unused real estate to acquiring or repurposing underutilized assets to meet student, staff, and local housing needs.

Effectively Engage the Community

Land owned by public schools is a public asset. Advance community needs, paving the way for a positive, successful outcome, with help from our experienced team. We know how to navigate the complex world of stakeholders, crafting narratives that speak to students, parents, teachers, the school board, government, and local residents, so that everyone is informed. We’ll help you overcome uncertainty and illuminate your proposal’s benefits, ensuring an atmosphere of transparency, so you can gain the momentum you need to move forward.
