Our Process
We believe the key to maximizing financial returns is to operate the best building we can.
We firmly believe that a building that embodies proactive management and maintenance may initially outperform a less attentive owner's returns, but in the long-term will attract better tenants, and in turn, better financials. The reverse is also true. A "Slumlord" may initially save money by skimping on maintenance or management expenses, but will eventually face city violations, low quality tenants who don't pay, and criminal activity that makes leasing difficult.
