Approach and Values

Commercial real estate requires the ability to recognize opportunity, the knowledge and experience to undertake a comprehensive examination of the various elements at play in any project, an understanding of the nature and scope of risk those elements present, and the drive and ability to navigate those risks to success. Our approach to every project and the values we follow in every situation are the foundation to achieving our goal to “Do it Right. Daily.”

ourAPPROACH

We approach every opportunity–new development and stabilized assets–with a developer’s eye at every stage of the process, utilizing our experience and expertise to minimize risk and maximize returns as much as possible.

Market

Finding opportunity and achieving success in development requires understanding both the macroeconomic forces at play and the discreet trends and events affecting specific locales in a market. There are times to be bold and times to hold steady. Our experience and expertise allows us to assess the market and identify what we believe is the best course of action to achieve our objectives.

Regulatory and Permitting

The regulatory and permitting environment for real estate development is complex, opaque and challenging, particularly in Austin, Texas! We understand this environment and have unmatched experience navigating a project through these critical stages.

Design

We admire and appreciate great design! We work closely with architects and designers whose vision and execution on that vision result in striking, best-in-class buildings and interiors.

Financing

Collectively, we’ve worked on billions of dollars of equity structures and construction and permanent financing for real estate assets of all types. We have strong relationships with partners and lenders and pride ourselves on being reasonable and focusing what’s important for success.

Legal

Commercial real estate involves endless legal considerations, issues and agreements: development and construction agreements, leases, purchase and sale agreements, and many, many more. We work with the best legal minds to identify and minimize risks and optimize outcomes.

Construction

Simply put, when it comes to construction and engineering, we believe we’re among the best in the world. Our projects are complex, technical, world-class buildings. We manage the construction process from start to finish to ensure the highest level of quality.

Acquisitions

Every opportunity to acquire a new property presents questions unique to that property. Pricing, location, timing, rental rates, demographics, access, ability to redevelop or reconfigure are just a few of the considerations we examine in determining whether an acquisition makes sense.

Operations

We strive for operational excellence in all that we do. Our standard isn’t simply to get something done—it’s to do it right, the first time, in the most cost effective manner. Our size and experience allow us to be extremely nimble and we’re able to resolve issues as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Marketing

Our knowledge and experience means we know the market and what it wants. Accordingly, we start from the perspective of the user. Every project we develop and operate has a client in mind—who they are, what they value, what they need and want, what experience they are seeking and how it fits into their lives and business—and we design and develop with those elements in mind.
