No two properties are exactly alike, and the vision for how best to develop those properties shouldn’t be, either. The LKM Development Group’s acquisition and development team identifies properties with the most potential for upgrades, creates a plan for enhancement, and maximizes the return on investment while offering a quality lifestyle for residents.
When you work with LKM, you work with us from the beginning to the end. While other firms may contract outside labor, LKM has an in-house professional construction supervision team of engineers, general contractors, project managers, architects, and urban planners. Put our team to work for you from the ground up.
Investing in property redevelopment can be a costly, if worthwhile venture. Finding mutually beneficial financial relationships with favorable terms is key. LKM’s clients have access to our sprawling network of debt providers, mezzanine lenders, and joint venture partners, developed over fifty years of relationship building.
Never go into an investment property blind. Make sure you understand the neighborhood, property values, local laws, codes, and regulations, as well as financial trends, before getting into real estate. With LKM’s market knowledge service, we provide all of the data and research you could ever need to properly analyze all acquisitions and development opportunities.
LKM’s services break down into three groups: financial, construction, and marketing. While our visionaries and professional construction teams work with our market knowledge gurus to leverage our capital market relationships, our leasing and marketing team works tirelessly to create accurate market forecasts and fill each property with signed leases.
