Green Capital Needs Assessment

The complete green planning tool for building owners and managers

Our Green CNA combines a lender-accepted 20-year capital needs assessment with sensible green recommendations from long-time building professionals.

The complete report enables multifamily owners and managers to:

 

  • improve energy and water efficiency
  • reduce operating and capital costs
  • safeguard indoor environmental quality (IEQ) for residents
  • reduce environmental impact

and communicate these benefits to stakeholders, CFOs, and lenders.

Every member of our capital planning staff is certified by the Building Performance Institute (BPI) as a Building Analyst and has additional certification in Multifamily.

On-Site Insight (OSI) is a Recap Real Estate Advisors company.

Essential for green underwriting

Our GCNA complies with the Enterprise Communities Retrofit Audit Protocol and is used by lenders to reliably underwrite green loans.
