We believe that every successful building project not only enriches investors, employs workers and contributes to the community, but it also enhances the lives of all who touch it. GID develops and manages premium mixed-use, multi-family and assisted living projects. We focus on opportunities with high barriers to entry such as below-market acquisition cost, irreplaceable location, and restrictive development environments. Our operations are designed to be lean, innovative, and flexible.
We believe good projects
begin with the
right acquisition price.
This initial step requires knowledge of all
project costs from acquisition through
occupancy. To formulate a comprehensive
understanding of costs, we take into account
all aspects of the project including design,
value engineering development, marketing and
financing.
At the start of every project, construction
professionals join architects, engineers,
and design professionals to form a cohesive,
multidisciplinary team. This team functions
to develop efficient and marketable design
strategies. Effective communication, tight project
coordination and the close cooperation of
the development team is required throughout
the development process.
Our operating philosophy is to remain lean and flexible, enabling us to adapt to changing market
conditions and capitalize on market
fluctuations. By leveraging longstanding
relationships with architects, general
contractors, subcontractors, and sales and
marketing professionals, we maintain our
efficient structure and capture the breadth
of knowledge and depth of experience of our
partners. Throughout the process, we remain
in constant contact with our sales
professionals, lending institutions, and
investors to provide timely progress
updates.
This approach-implemented by our proven,
experienced team-has resulted in our
securing a series of high-quality assets and
creating highly marketable
units. We are confident this approach positions
us for continued growth and
success.
