A TALE OF A TIMELY MEETING

A WORD TO OUR CAPITAL PARTNERS

When you grow up doing work for real estate developers, you

learn a few things very quickly if you plan on remaining in

business.

One is to keep your client happy with impeccable work done on

time and on budget. The other is to control your costs.

Those same essentials of construction management become

even more critical when youre building luxury properties on a

spec basis, when all the risk is to your own bottom line.

Weve now done dozens of spec projects and have consistentlybeen able to beat our budgets and exceed our sales projections.

Thats why were still in business after 25 years.

And thats why weve chosen to embark on a growth strategy.
