Development Services
There can be many obstacles to effectively developing a property. Time, lack of knowledge, and lack of contacts in the industry are just a few of the factors that make it difficult if not impossible to effectively develop a property.
Marble Alley Development is able to identify and execute opportunities that are the right fit for your real estate, and we are extremely experienced in all phases of property development from start to finish. From market study to pro forma to permitting and dealing with local governments to arranging financing and managing construction, then marketing the final product, the Marble Alley Development team will guide you every step of the way to insure the success of your project.
Property Management
Owning multiple units of rental property can bring with it many benefits but also many headaches. Owning and managing a property are two different skills, and sometimes problems can arise if you do not live near your property, are inundated with management tasks, your time is limited, or you view owning rental property strictly as an investment and want little to do with the day-today management of the property.
Our team of property management specialists are well versed in all aspects of managing properties. We help you by filling vacancies with the best possible tenants, making sure your property is well maintained both inside and out, tracking income and expenses to insure profitability, negotiate leases, collect rent and track deposits, and dealing with problem tenants and evictions. This allows you to reap the benefits of owning rental property while saving you valuable time.
Architecture
At Marble Alley Development, we are experienced at identifying client needs and program requirements and translating that knowledge into responsive design solutions for commercial, residential, single family, multi-family projects and beyond.
Our comprehensive architectural services include conceptual design, schematic design, design development and construction documentation. We are also able to assist with negotiation with contractors, assessing bids from contractors, and construction contractor assisting with contractor bidding and/or negotiating and construction contract administration. In addition, the architects at Marble Alley Development are able to bring the vision to life with CAD generated 3D walkthroughs and physical models of the project.
Interior Design
Both commercial and residential spaces have multiple stakeholders that will influence the end result of the interior design process, and often it can be difficult to balance the two. Our experienced staff of interior designers is able to take into account all of these perspectives and balance them. This insures that the interior design aspects are a success for all involved.
The Interior Designers at Marble Alley Development are well versed in decoration, design, and functionality. Whether the space is residential, commercial, industrial, or a mix, our designers work closely with architects and clients to determine the structure of the space, the needs of the stakeholders, and the aesthetics that suit the needs of both. In addition to furniture, fabric, and fixtures our designers are also well versed in materials, budgeting skills, ordering and installation. We understand how to infuse your space with organization’s personality while staying within the bottom line.
Property Turnaround
There are many reasons you may find yourself in possession of an underperforming rental property-inheritance, acquisition, or employee malfeasance are just a few of the reasons you might end up with a property in your portfolio that is not performing up to its potential.
The property management team at Marble Alley Development has real world experience in turning around ailing, tired, and/or employee-abused rental properties. We execute a simultaneous, two pronged strategy: the management turnaround strategy and the property turnaround strategy. The property turnaround strategy consists of making improvements to the grounds and property to maximize the property’s curb appeal to bring up rents and resale potential, while the management turnaround strategy consists of an aggressive property management plan that is focused on increasing the property’s net income by raising rents, reducing operating expenses, evicting non-paying tenants, terminating non-performing employees and eliminating vacancies. Our turnaround team can get your investment back on track and in the black.
Marketing
Sometimes, marketing your residential or commercial property is as easy as putting up an ad on Craigslist and waiting for the phone to ring. But many times there are challenges to getting your message out to the public. For example, projects that are very niche-specific are national in scope, or properties that have negative online reviews or incidents attached to them bring their own set of unique marketing problems.
Marble Alley Development has a marketing team that is well versed in all aspects of property marketing and use a diverse range of marketing tactics to assure you of maximum exposure and high occupancy rates. Our team analyzes your property and creates a strategy based on your market, your goals, and your budget. Our strategies include: Website creation, SEO (search engine optimization-making you rank higher in Google searches) Social Media campaigns, print brochures, signage and flyers. In addition we implement tenant referral programs, long term tenant reward programs, and we establish relationships with the HR departments of local corporations and universities to aid in new employee relocation. Our custom tailored marketing strategies will keep your properties rented and generating positive cash flow.
