ARGUS™, by Realm Business Solutions, is the industry standard for cash flow analysis. ARGUS software is extremely easy-to-use, while comprehensive enough for even the most sophisticated analytical requirements encountered in today’s asset transactions.
ARGUS models all aspects of the real estate life cycle — from initial acquisition, through development, to lease up, and disposition. Now with built-in international support, this software is a mainstay for forecasting the discounted cash flows of any income-generating property. ARGUS can also be used to value assets, view partnership structures and analyze debt financing.

Developers, property and leasing brokers, equity and debt investors, contruction and permanent lenders, fee appraisers, bank appraisers, asset managers, tax assessors, mortgage bankers, investment bankers, and corporate real estate executives find that ARGUS offers the greatest combination of features and functionality.
