Fee Development Services

Concourse Realty Group acts as the developer for a commercial real estate project on behalf of our client. The services provided are very similar to the Development Advisory Services we offer, except the client turns over the actual development responsibility to Concourse Realty Group. In this role, we do all that is necessary to execute the development plan to outlined in the Feasibility Study create value for our client. We form a customized team of professionals who possess many of the following skill sets and core competencies:

Accountants	Financial Analysts	Attorneys
Engineers	Construction Managers	Sales and Marketing
Public Relations	Architects	Market Analysts
Property Managers	Lease Planners	Interior Designers
Appraisers	Property Managers	Asset Managers

The development team is involved in all aspects of the process. While it is not always possible to involve or use the whole development team with every aspect of the development, each member of the development team has major input to the process.

A small sampling of the activities performed include:

Continually evaluate the scope of the project

Update development budget, operating proforma and capital structure

Identify prospective tenant’s programs and needs

Establish preliminary design criteria

Begin preliminary design of site and base building

Identify all municipal approvals

Planning, scheduling, and programming

Interview, make recommendations, negotiate and engage prospective project consultants

Hold weekly project meetings with consultants, tenant representatives

Establish final development schedule

Assist in obtaining all required approvals, entitlements and permits

Cost Control

Schedule Review

Attend all project and subcontractor meetings

Monitor bank draws and lien releases

Review all change orders

Work with tenant in coordinating tenant work with base building

Monitor quality and safety control

Review and approve final punch list and construction close-out

Secure completion of occupancy

And so on...

No project will be undertaken until a complete Feasibility Study or business plan is completed. The completion of a Feasibility Study is done during the feasibility phase of the project (the second of the six phases of development). The Feasibility Study attempts to lay out the logic and plan for a successful commercial real estate development. The report follows a comprehensive format promulgated by Concourse Realty Group.

All assumptions made, and external dependencies specified, in the Feasibility Study are explicitly documented. Because the Feasibility Study is written early in the project life cycle, there will be many unknowns, and assumptions need to be made in order to produce a plan of action, budgets and schedule. These assumptions are extensively documented so that the Feasibility Study can be modified appropriately should the assumptions change or turn out to be false. As we move through the development process, the Feasibility Report is updated and refined.

As part of the Fee Development Services, we provide progress reports to the client at regular intervals. A project with frequent and regular reports, milestones, and deliverables are inherently simpler to control than one that produces nothing until the very end and gives the client and us the opportunity to give constructive feedback or take corrective actions sooner that they otherwise might.
