About BBG Real Estate Services

BBG Real Estate Services (also referred to as BBG Inc.) delivers accurate property appraisals, property and environmental assessments, and market analyses for commercial real estate. The company’s tagline, “Trusted Insight. True Independence,” reflects its commitment to precision and independence in real estate valuation and due diligence services. BBG serves clients across the country from 50+ offices nationwide (per public bios of BBG leadership). The firm has multiple active MAI-designated appraisers and has launched specialty practices including a Data Center Specialty Practice and conducts industry research such as the BBG Seniors Housing Investor Survey.

Leadership

  • Bill Britain — Chief Executive Officer (named CEO in September 2024, longtime industry and BBG veteran)
  • Barrett Scruggs — Chief Operating Officer (leads operational strategy, marketing, strategic growth)
  • Peter Christensen — General Counsel & Chief Compliance Officer (hired August 2024)
  • Marty Skolnik — GSE Compliance Officer
  • Brian Tankersley — leads the Los Angeles office (valuation specialist)

The September 2024 CEO transition (from Chris Roach to Bill Britain) and the simultaneous addition of dedicated General Counsel and GSE Compliance Officer roles reflect BBG’s investment in regulatory rigor as the firm scales.

Company History

BBG Real Estate Services has built a national reputation as an independent real estate valuation and assessment firm. The company has grown to operate from 50+ offices across the United States, with notable recent expansions in Los Angeles and New York City. BBG added several hundred new customers across the firm in the first half of 2024 per a public statement from then-CEO Chris Roach.

Services Offered

Delivery model note (important)

BBG’s core business is commercial real estate valuation and appraisal (the firm has multiple MAI-designated appraisers and produces thousands of appraisal reports annually). Phase 1 ESA and ALTA Survey services are typically coordinated through BBG’s network — that is, BBG manages scope, vendor selection, timeline, and quality review while the underlying fieldwork is performed by licensed environmental professionals (for Phase 1) or licensed surveyors (for ALTA). For CRE buyers ordering BBG, this means a single point of coordination across appraisal + DD services. Buyers wanting a direct relationship with the licensed individual performing the fieldwork may prefer a regional environmental or surveying firm.

ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey (coordinated)

BBG coordinates ALTA surveys for commercial real estate transactions via licensed surveyors.

Service Area

BBG Real Estate Services operates from multiple office locations strategically positioned across the United States in key commercial real estate markets. The company provides nationwide coverage for appraisal, environmental assessment, and due diligence services.

BBG Real Estate Services provides nationwide coverage across all 50 states.

Where BBG Stands Out: Appraisal-Led Due Diligence

BBG’s CRE positioning is unusual among Phase 1 ESA / ALTA Survey providers because the firm is primarily a commercial real estate appraisal firm (not an environmental engineering shop) that has built out a due-diligence practice around its appraisal core. Multiple MAI-designated appraisers lead the appraisal arm, completing thousands of reports annually.

This appraisal-first orientation has practical implications for buyers:

  • Valuation + Phase 1 ESA + PCA bundle on the same property — useful when a lender requires all three and wants consistent reporting
  • Independence is a brand pillar — BBG markets “Trusted Insight. True Independence” because appraisal credibility depends on the appraiser not having other revenue-conflict exposures
  • Coordinated reporting — appraisal report cross-references PCA and Phase 1 ESA findings, which can be useful for lender review

Specialty Practices

BBG has launched a few notable specialty practices:

  • Data Center Specialty Practice — addressing the surge in data center valuation, environmental, and condition work
  • Seniors Housing Investor Survey — annual industry research
  • GSE-Compliance practice — under Marty Skolnik (GSE Compliance Officer), focused on agency-lender requirements
  • Recent LA office expansion under valuation specialist Brian Tankersley
  • NYC leadership team with expanded responsibilities

The hire of Peter Christensen as General Counsel & Chief Compliance Officer signals investment in regulatory rigor and litigation-risk management.
