Division 01 · Real Estate Development & Advisory
We evaluate land, determine what can be built and whether it pencils, and manage the permitting and design path until the project is ready to be financed and built in Puerto Rico and Florida.
Who it's for
Know what your land is worth and what can be developed on it before you sell, contribute it to a partnership or build.
Validate a project, sequence the permitting path and reach financing with a defensible model.
Plan, acquire or reposition assisted living facilities with a viable program and capital stack.
Services
Each service can be engaged on its own or as part of a full development mandate.
Title and liens, acreage, zoning, infrastructure and flood risk; then the highest-value use that regulation allows and the market absorbs.
Market, costs, pro forma, sensitivity and capital sources, with an explicit recommendation: proceed, redesign or discard.
Permitting strategy and agency endorsements, coordination with engineers and architects, and follow-through to approval.
Program, budget, schedule and design team; milestone control from pre-development to construction start.
Functional program, room matrix, site plans and business models for care homes, senior housing and continuing-care campuses.
Management of residential and affordable housing assets: compliance, reporting, occupancy and net operating income optimization.
Market thesis, acquisition and exit strategy for family offices, sponsors and public entities with assets in Puerto Rico.

FAQ
A feasibility study answers whether a project can be built, sold or leased, and financed on the proposed site. It combines five fronts: market (demand, absorption, comparable prices or rents), regulatory (zoning, land use, required permits and endorsements), physical (acreage, topography, infrastructure and flood risk), financial (hard and soft costs, pro forma, sensitivity and returns) and capital (debt, equity and applicable incentives). The deliverable ends with an explicit recommendation: proceed, redesign or discard.
First we confirm what the land is: ownership and liens in the Property Registry, acreage per survey, current zoning and land use, access, available infrastructure (water, power, sewer) and flood exposure. Then we determine what the land can be: the highest-value use that regulation allows and the market absorbs, with its density, permitting path and cost. That analysis sets the land's value to sell it, develop it or contribute it to a partnership.
It is the line with the most mandates on record: programs and plans for 57- and 75-bed facilities, an 80-bed care home with NMTC structuring, project management of a 108-bed project under NMTC, a continuum-of-care master plan with a 125-bed base case and the acquisition valuation of an operating 44-bed home. Each mandate appears with its actual status in the portfolio.
