witt+co. already leads with market intelligence — AI is about to compress that edge from quarters into hours, and the brokers who don't catch up will be invisible by year-end.
What's actually hitting your desk right now
- CoStar and Crexi both shipped LLM-powered comp analysis in Q1 — tenant reps are showing clients polished IRR scenarios in 10 minutes, not 3 days.
- North County industrial clients (Carlsbad, Vista, San Marcos) are asking for absorption forecasts with sourced citations — "trust me, I know the market" no longer closes.
- Listing agents who automate CAM reconciliation and rent roll analysis are doubling tour-to-LOI conversion because they walk in with the answer already modeled.
- The threat isn't a broker with AI — it's a well-capitalized tenant who runs their own AI and shows up knowing your comps cold.
The Shift Happening Now
- Market intelligence moats are shrinking — scraped + structured data beats relationship-only intel for the first time.
- Sophisticated San Diego tenants (biotech, defense, logistics) expect AI-quality briefs, not broker PDFs.
- Private capital is underwriting North County assets in 48 hours using AI-assisted DD — deal velocity is up, patience is down.
What Smart CRE Operators Are Doing
- Building a private GPT trained on their own comp set + client history — zero data leakage, instant leverage.
- Automating tour books, offering memos, and market updates so they spend 70% of time on relationship and deal strategy.
- Using AI to surface off-market owner signals (LLC filings, permit data, debt maturity) weeks before competitors.

Morgan — we've got 12 mutuals (Kanani said hi) and I've watched witt+co. build a real data-first brand in a market still run on lunch meetings. I build private AI systems for operators who already lead with intelligence — the goal is to make your existing edge 10x sharper without adding headcount or leaking client data.
