It takes more than good design to make a project successful.

Sure, we specialize in design, but we also offer our clients assistance in developing a tangible path forward for their development project. You probably fall into one of two categories: 1) you own a building and want to redevelop the property, or 2) you’re looking to purchase a building for redevelopment. In either scenario, the importance of having a plan for the building is paramount.

Unsure of what to do with your building and how to make the most of it? Because we are also architects, we’re able to work with you on concept development and design and we understand exactly how it will affect your bottom line.

We run a 20-year projection using market data, construction costs, and funding sources to help determine how the building will operate and earn a return on your investment. From experience, we know the hurdles that may be encountered during project start-up or five years down the road.

HTCs have been a critical tool for many historic buildings, bridging the gap to make the right projects financially feasible. We have expertise in this area for both the building design and the application process with dozens of successful examples. More information about Historic Tax Credit Consulting.

Incentives for development exist in many forms, whether for affordable housing, job-creation, historic preservation, or new business start-ups. We can help you navigate the murky waters full of acronyms (LIHTC, SBA, CDBG, etc.) and outline how and where these incentives can match up with your business plan.

There are a variety of grants and other funding sources that may be applicable to your project. We’ll help you through the process, providing technical assistance and supporting materials to make the most compelling case possible.

A successful development is rooted in relationships: city officials, contractors, bankers, investors, lenders, tenants, and more. With over four decades of relationship-building in the development realm, we can assist you with vision-casting, negotiations, and setting up the project so that your team can work seamlessly together.
