SME Real Estate Group – Market Research, Expansion Strategy & Grant Support
About SME Real Estate Group Project
An Illinois-based SME real estate development company partnered with DNA Growth to identify viable avenues for expansion in a competitive but underserved market. The client was looking to scale operations across commercial and residential real estate segments, but required data-driven clarity on which sub-markets and project types would yield the best return.
DNA Growth’s mandate was to conduct granular market research, develop an expansion strategy, and support the company in applying for local government grants that could offset capital costs. The key objective was to present actionable, board-level insights with a clear strategic growth and funding alignment roadmap.
