Who wework for
Developers
Luxury condominium and private commercial developers who want an owner's team without hiring one.
Lenders and private funds
Banks, debt funds and private lenders who need to know each draw is buying real progress.
Investors and owners
Equity partners and family offices who want an independent view of where their money stands.
Lender representation
The lender's eyes on site.
Banks, private lenders and funds rely on us to tell them, every month, whether the money they release is buying building. We review the project before closing and inspect it before every draw.
- Pre-closing budget and schedule review
- Monthly draw inspections
- Recommended funding amounts
- Lien waiver and insurance checks
- Cost-to-complete updates
- Written report to the lender
Owner's representation
On the developer's side of the table.
For developers and investors, we run the project the way an in-house team would: one firm holding the contractor, the designers and the consultants to the budget and the dates.
- Contractor bids and selection
- Contract negotiation support
- Design and permit coordination
- Change order review
- Weekly owner meetings
- A decision log the whole team can see
Budget and draw control
Paid for what is built. Nothing more.
Each pay application is checked against the schedule of values and the work in place. Over-billing, stored materials without paperwork and unapproved changes are held until they are right.
- Schedule of values review
- Monthly pay applications
- Change order pricing
- Contingency tracking
- Retainage
- Final accounting
Schedule and deadlines
The building and the loan, on the same calendar.
A construction loan has its own dates. We track the contractor's schedule against them, find slippage early and hold the team to a written recovery plan when a date moves.
- Master schedule review
- Milestone tracking
- Delay analysis
- Recovery plans
- Permit and inspection dates
- Unit closing and move-in dates
Site problem solving
When something goes wrong, we go.
A failed inspection, a late delivery, a design conflict, a dispute between trades. We go to the site, get the right people in the room, agree the fix and protect the schedule and the budget.
- On-site response
- Failed inspection recovery
- Trade disputes
- Design conflicts and RFIs
- Quality defects
- Safety stops
Closeout and turnover
The last ten percent, finished properly.
The end of a project is where money leaks: punch lists that never close, missing warranties, unreleased liens. We drive it to the certificate of occupancy and the keys.
- Punch lists
- Certificate of occupancy
- Warranties and manuals
- As-built documents
- Final lien releases
- Keys to the owner
