Today’s faith leaders have many responsibilities to juggle. Multiply your reach and impact with help from DCG Strategies. We specialize in commercial real estate services for organizations that serve the community, transforming underutilized real estate into a resource. Our staff, which includes ministers, worship leaders, ordination candidates, and church board members, understands your unique needs.

Our Certified B-Corp serves California churches and faith-based organizations of all denominations and sizes.

Turn Underutilized Church Property Into an Income-Generating Asset

Churches and faith-based organizations often face declining revenue. With today’s historic property values, land could be your most valuable resource. A realistic property assessment and insightful guidance can help you uncover its hidden potential, allowing your ministry to reach new heights. Our experienced real estate team will work with your church leadership and congregation, opening your eyes to opportunities to boost income, better manage expenses and risk, and ensure long-term stability while keeping your organization’s goals at heart. We’ll walk alongside you every step of the way, advocating for your interests throughout your journey.

Real Estate Brokerage Services for Faith-Based Organizations

Our full-service commercial real estate brokerage for churches and faith-based organizations takes a faithful approach to real estate, putting people before profits. We understand that sometimes, the highest bidder or lowest price may not be the right choice to advance your mission, offering custom-tailored services that reflect your values. Our world-class marketing includes a network of thousands of specialized faith-based buyers and total fee transparency. We’ll represent your interests when selling, buying, renting, or leasing, providing in-depth, realistic property estimates. We also offer financial consulting to help you leverage income to your organization’s benefit.

Strategic Property Planning Services for Churches and Faith-Based Organizations

We speak two languages: those of faith communities and commercial real estate.

Our comprehensive real estate planning services include:
  • Land use analysis, including “as is” and highest possible site values
  • Project feasibility studies to determine your best options for optimizing land value and community impact
  • Building, expanding, updating, and repairing church facilities and clergy housing
  • Rezoning, subdividing, and repurposing land for multi-family residential, retail, and mixed-use

  • Developing affordable workforce and community housing is one of our specialties. In partnership with the Glad Tidings Community Development Corporation, we’ve received generous grant funding from the San Francisco Foundation to host a series of conferences called “The Ministry of Housing.” These events help congregation leaders gain insight into all aspects of developing housing on property owned by houses of worship.
