WE HAVE THE COMPENSATION DATA YOU NEED

The ability to attract, motivate and retain talent is bolstered by data which can then be translated into valuable, actionable insight. Our National Real Estate Compensation Survey covers nearly 400 companies and provides a clear picture of the competitive landscape. Participants receive compensation data on 160 key positions across all types of commercial and residential real estate companies, as well as detail on board compensation and executive management trends.

Pearl Meyer also manages surveys for three key real estate associations:  Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA), American Seniors Housing Association (ASHA), and the National Affordable House Management Association (NAHMA). Each survey provides member companies with pay detail specific to their market segment.
