About
A development firm with a brokerage attached.
Not the other way round. That ordering is the whole company. It decides who we hire, what we sell, and what our advisors know that others do not.
It started with one building
The firm began with a tired three-family that nobody wanted, bought because it was cheap and hard rather than because it was ready. Taking it down to the studs and putting it back together taught more about what property is worth than any number of showings would have.
That building is still the office. It is also still the argument: the way to understand real estate is to make some.
Three businesses, one table
Development acquires and builds. Brokerage sells and leases. Management holds and operates. Plenty of firms list all three on a website; here they share a pipeline and a set of numbers, and the people doing one sit in on the others.
That is deliberate and occasionally inefficient. It is also the only way the knowledge actually moves between them.
Specificity over polish
Real estate has more confident vagueness in it than almost any other industry. We would rather give a client a number we can defend and a reason we might be wrong.
The same applies to hiring. We tell agents exactly who this suits and who it does not, because a bad fit costs them a year of their career.
A stated commitment
We comply with federal, state, and local fair housing law, and we support the letter and the spirit of equal opportunity in housing. We do not steer, and we will not take instructions that would require us to.
