New developments · Pre-construction

The projects I believe in.

Pre-construction can be the best way to buy here, or the hardest lesson. I only show projects I've checked myself: the developer, the permits, the contract and how your payments are protected.

How I vet a project

Before it's on this page, I check.

01

The developer

Finished projects you can visit, and owners in their last building you can talk to.

02

The permits

The construction license and environmental permit, before anyone reserves.

03

The contract

A penalty if delivery is late, and the price on the deed is the real price.

04

Your payments

Into a trust or escrow, not straight to the developer.

Before you reserve

Read the hard truth first.

If a developer doesn't deliver, lawsuits can take years. Your best protection is checking before you pay. My free guide has the red flags and the 10 questions to ask any developer, me included.
