Market intelligence for your work
Built for everyone deciding what a place is becoming.
Screen a market before you commit, and see the streets inside it separately instead of as one average.
Find where reinvestment is already forming, with the public record standing behind every signal.
Walk into a pitch with defensible evidence about a specific corridor, not a general impression of a neighborhood.
Point programs, incentives and attention at the places where the measurable case is strongest.
Make the case for capital in the places a neighborhood-level average quietly writes off.
The same view of your own block that the capital deciding about it already has.
The core idea
One number for a whole neighborhood hides the thing you are looking for.
Screen an area the way the market usually does and it reads as a single score. Look underneath it and the individual streets can behave nothing like each other, and nothing like the average that covers them.
What sets Tubman apart
Three things we do differently.
We measure below the average
A neighborhood is not one market. Tubman scores the corridors and sub-markets inside it separately, because that is where opportunity and risk actually sit.
Built entirely on public records
Permits, licenses, safety records, assessor sales, Census housing. Nothing proprietary, nothing scraped, and every figure traceable back to its source.
Residents see what investors see
The same depth in plainer language, on purpose. Information asymmetry is the thing we are built to close, not a product tier we sell around.
We are early, and choosing who we build with.
Tubman is built by a former JLL and Cresa strategy consultant who spent a career watching capital make decisions about neighborhoods on thinner evidence than anyone would admit. Two full markets are already built and running. We are working with a small number of founding partners, each on their own geography, and the work you see shapes what the platform becomes.
