About

Built by commercial real estate investors, for our own deals

We buy and operate commercial real estate ourselves, across multiple asset classes. Trent started as the analyst our own acquisitions team needed: one that reads every listing, does the research a listing leaves out, and scores each deal the way we underwrite. We were its first customer.

Trent is built by the team at Nessel Development, a commercial real estate investment firm with more than 20 years of hands-on experience acquiring and managing properties.

Harper builds the AI behind Trent: the research that fills in what a listing leaves out, the scoring engine, and the checks that tie every number back to its source.

Your deals stay yours

We invest in commercial real estate, so we keep a hard line between your account and our own buying. Your deals, buy box, rubric, and documents are never shared with anyone else, and we never use your deal feed to source acquisitions for Nessel or anyone else.
