Frequently asked questions

How many transactions has Phoenix Commercial Advisors recorded?

The firm's own record holds 7,466 leases and sales across Arizona from 1996 to 2026. The track record draws them where they happened.

How is that different from the $2.5 billion in investment sales?

They count different things. The map counts every lease and sale in the firm's record. The $2.5 billion figure covers the retail investment closings that carry a recorded price, more than 430 of them. The closed deals database at /track-record/closings/ lists the narrower set PCA publishes.

What kinds of transactions are in the record?

Leases, sales and ground leases of Arizona retail property, from pads and in-line shop space to shopping centers and single-tenant net lease properties.

Where in Arizona has the firm closed deals?

Across the Phoenix metro and the rest of the state, including Tucson, Prescott and Prescott Valley, Flagstaff, Yuma, Sierra Vista, Casa Grande and Bullhead City. The track record page ranks the most active cities with their deal counts, and the closed deals database at /track-record/closings/ filters every closing by city.

How far back does the record go?

To 1996, the year the firm was founded and began working in retail only.

Where can I see recent closings?

Phoenix Commercial Advisors posts its own closing announcements in the news section and lists the newest on the home page. Recent examples include the Shake Shack sale at 99th Avenue and McDowell in Phoenix, Grand Village Center in Surprise and Union Street at Norterra in Phoenix. The closings PCA publishes are searchable at /track-record/closings/.

Does the track record show prices for every deal?

Not on the map. The map shows the shape of the record, by year and by place. The closed deals database at /track-record/closings/ lists individual closings with the tenant where one is named, the corner where recorded and the date, and the price of a sale where PCA publishes one. It does not publish lease terms or the names of buyers, sellers and landlords.

Where does the data come from?

From Phoenix Commercial Advisors' own transaction record, geocoded by cross-street. No third-party licensed data appears on the page.
