Popular questions
What is the biggest risk in real estate development?
The biggest risk is usually timing and market shift. We mitigate this through detailed market forecasting, robust financial contingency planning, and securing financing and pre-sales early in the process.
How long does a typical development project take from start to finish?
A project timeline can range from 12 to over 36 months, depending on the scale and complexity, with the entitlement and permitting phase often being the most variable. We provide a detailed Critical Path schedule upfront.
What profit margin should a developer target for a project?
While margins vary, we target projects with a projected profit margin that reflects the risk and complexity, typically aiming for returns that meet or exceed industry standards for the specific asset class (e.g., Value-Add or Core+).
How does Homeion secure financing for my development?
We prepare a comprehensive business plan and financial model to approach a variety of sources, including traditional construction loans, private equity partners, and joint ventures, to secure the most favorable capital stack.
How do you ensure the final product meets market demand?
We conduct extensive demographic and market research at the feasibility stage, including surveys of target tenants/buyers, to ensure the unit mix, size, and amenities are perfectly aligned with current and future local demand.
Should I sell the completed development or hold it as a rental investment?
We advise on the optimal exit strategy based on your financial goals. We provide models comparing the immediate capital return from a sale versus the long-term cash flow and equity build-up from holding the asset.
