The enterprise operates as a boutique, institutional-scale platform, utilizing a lean internal workforce of between 11 and 50 real estate, construction, and property management professionals. The corporation concentrates its business model on a vertically integrated platform that covers the entire property lifecycle, encompassing capital sourcing, property acquisition, ground-up construction, direct leasing, and long-term asset management.

The company's active property network and near-term development pipeline represent a cumulative asset valuation of over 500 million dollars.
