About Tactica RES®
Tactica RES® was formed in 2019 to provide analytical support to real estate professionals across the United States and Canada. My goal was simple—Be a go-to resource for real estate investors needing analyst support but lacking the capacity to hire someone full-time—I thought of Tactica RES as a plug for investors, brokers, and developers needing intermittent analyst support on a project-to-project basis.
A Realization
Early on, I believed everybody in our industry needed an analyst. I came from a background that relied heavily on analyst output and thought this was the "norm."
I realize now that greater value is derived from creating tools that eliminate analyst involvement. Our models are intuitive and don't require Excel mastery, technical skills, or an MBA in real estate finance.
We are constantly improving our underwriting tools, creating new tutorials, and revamping old tutorial content, all while keeping things simple. Constant refining and simplicity are the keys to confident customers and cost-effective analysis.

About Ike
My name is Ike Hoffman and I am currently living in St. Paul, Minnesota. After graduating from college in 2011, which was during the depths of the recession, I tested out my luck on foreign soil. I lived in Chile for two years and was fortunate to work with a Global Investment Bank in their Leveraged Finance Department.
I returned home in 2014 and began working at CBRE on the multifamily sales team as an analyst. During my tenure, I analyzed over 550 apartment buildings totaling over $13 billion in projected valuations. I was involved in $3 billion of multifamily transactions.
My hobbies include blogging, fishing, basketball, cribbage, and poker. I am a devoted Minnesota Gophers and Twins fan.
