Real Estate Development Opportunities

One of the biggest challenges facing property owners and municipalities is the fact that land or currently vacant properties do not produce positive cash flow. Yes, the owners can sometimes sit on their properties under a tax advantaged plan of attack, but local communities suffer when that happens as underutilized properties often contribute to blight and low tax base. Municipal governments sell properties via auctions and collect funds from the sale of the properties but if you look carefully at the municipal return on investment when the future owners merely sit on the property the returns are rather paltry. Similarly, when properties are held by non-profit organizations and religious institutions, they rarely create positive cash flow for the institutions—the very institutions which need the funds to sustain themselves and underwrite their good work!

We are experts at working with municipalities and non-profit organizations in evaluating development opportunities.

We seek development opportunities that leverage our talents and mission. We are willing to partner with large, small, non-profit, for-profit organizations and investors who wish to engage us as officially designated State of New Jersey and Port Authority MBE. As the well-respected real estate scholar Dr. James Grasskamp once said: “There is always a site looking for a use or a use looking for a site.” We are in constant contact with brokers, investors and property owners who may be interested in monetizing their property to move an illiquid asset into one that has the potential to create positive cash flow in support of the owner’s financial and mission goals. We are expert at unlocking that value and would love to speak with you about your potential opportunity.

We have a well-organized and talented team of development professionals on our team. (see our partners page) We are well versed in the financing toolbox of tax credits, incentives and other state of the art financing programs available to support your project. We also have access to financing at The Bank of Princeton, the New Jersey Community Capital, New Jersey’s largest and arguably most creative, community development financial intuition and other funding sources. Give us the opportunity to learn more about your project and how we can assist you.
