# Research & Tools

Notes built from what PCA actually leased and sold, not republished data. Short, dated, and quotable. Below the notes, the tools you can use yourself.

## Notes from our own record

- 08/15/2026: [Arizona retail activity, 1996 to 2026](https://newphoenixcommercialadvisors.com/market/arizona-retail-activity/)

## Run the numbers or explore the record

- [Investment Studio](https://newphoenixcommercialadvisors.com/tools/investment-studio/): Free tools for retail investors: build a 1031 replacement set from current offerings, find your 45 and 180 day dates, and run net lease numbers.
- [Lease or Buy](https://newphoenixcommercialadvisors.com/tools/lease-vs-buy/): Compare the cash to lease a retail space with the cash to buy a small building, year by year, before tax. Illustrative only.
- [Track Record map](https://newphoenixcommercialadvisors.com/track-record/): Every dot is a deal: 7,466 leases and sales across Arizona since 1996, drawn where they happened. Zoom into any part of the state.
- [Closed deals](https://newphoenixcommercialadvisors.com/track-record/closings/): Retail sales and leases PCA has closed in Arizona. Search by tenant, property, corner or city.
