Edgeline approaches development management with an emphasis on responsive communication and collaborative problem solving to optimize the ultimate value of the completed project within the client’s budget. After offering front-end recommendations to clients based on extensive research and analyses, we then manage a select group of professionals (architects, engineers, brokers, builders) to bring the project to completion. Services include project management, development and leasing, community engagement, and opportunities for joint venture.
We manage both financial and time constraints, and we continue to keep open lines of communication with all stakeholders and vested parties within the community. Now that you have decided to either purchase or lease the property, we will be your ambassadors, ensuring that your unique concept becomes reality.
Site Selection and Due Dilligence
One of the most critical activities to achieve successful real estate development involves thorough due diligence. This process can identify critical issues early in the transaction/development review. It requires an objective and dispassionate evaluation.
Land Entitlements
Location and site conditions can have a magnitude of impacts on construction costs and schedule. Therefore, this should be evaluated carefully and early in the process. We perform a thorough analysis of current and potential zoning conditions as well as confirm market conditions for the proposed development.
Project Development Feasibility Services
Market feasibility of a project must be well established in order to attract investment/risk capital. Careful vetting and selection of project consultants can save considerable time and money throughout the development cycle. Establishing realistic budgets and schedules provide the basis for proper financial evaluation of a project.
Project Management
We manage site engineering, permitting, and financials, and inspections, while overseeing fidelity to architectural designs all the way through to delivering the certificate of occupancy. By selecting the most qualified general contractor and staying in close communication, we keep the project on budget and on –or ahead of—schedule.Community Engagement
We participate and/or lead valuable community engagements to gather information regarding local area receptiveness beginning in the early stages of the project. Not only is it important to educate community members about the nature of the project, but building positive communication and report with the neighborhood surrounding your project can mitigate local concerns and avoid long-term challenges if unaddressed.
In addition to neighborhood groups and associations, we connect with community leaders, including business owners, city officials, civil leaders, residents, partners, clients, and all those who have a vested interest in the area.Project Financing
We assist in creative investment and financial strategy so you can make the appropriate decisions relative to your approval amount from your financial institution. Then, we maintain the relationship between the bank and project contractors on your behalf.Joint Venture Opportunities
We enjoy collaborating with clients and helping them find ways to add value to their current projects. Let us help you think creatively about the best path to bringing your conception to reality, whether through raising capital, identifying strategic financing options, optimizing the site, expanding to an additional location, redeveloping your current space, or working as a co-developer/consultant on your project.Leasing/Sales Brokerage Services
Effective and timely leasing or sale of a property is a process that involves active broker participation and cooperation. Too often, brokers chose not to cooperate to avoid “splitting” commissions. Property owner may not even be aware of this self-serving approach. Our process, through our short list of preferred brokers, is to involve other professional brokers for maximum exposure of your real estate asset.
