The Problems You May Not Know You Have

1.

Developing a deep understanding of the local market and the potential buyers isn’t easy, can be time consuming, and takes expertise.

2.

Without boots on the ground knowledge of the neighborhood, it’s more difficult to build ideal unit layouts, offer desirable amenities and create a brand story that separates you from your competitors.

3.

If there is uncertainty in the development process it’s not always clear what can be done to cut or eliminate costs.

4.

Optimizing pricing for market dynamics and maximizing for demand is an art and a science, and if done incorrectly, can lead to slow sell through or stalled projects.

5.

Without a comprehensive, fully integrated marketing strategy, branding feels lifeless, lacking energy and enthusiasm
