Overview

Corporate Real Estate Management covers the management of real estate and facilities on behalf of corporate occupiers — portfolio strategy, transaction management, facilities and workplace management, and lease administration for companies that occupy (rather than invest in) real estate. It is led by the corporate-solutions arms of the global CRE-services firms (CBRE, JLL, Cushman) and integrated facilities-management providers.

Demand is driven by corporate outsourcing of non-core real estate and facilities, portfolio optimization (especially post-pandemic workplace rationalization and hybrid-work footprint reduction), and the integration of real-estate and workplace services. It is consolidating around scaled corporate-solutions providers; it overlaps integrated facilities management profiled under Construction & Engineering.
