Construction and development is an exciting, fast-paced segment of the commercial real estate industry. As a developer, your job requires vision and insight into the future; while simultaneously acting as a strong project manager for the tasks of the day. Daily to-dos include items such as site selection/acquisition, financing, contractor management, permit and license management, or pre-leasing space. Your schedule is excruciatingly tight and you therefore must depend on technology to give you additional bandwidth.
Challenges: With such a huge task at hand and so many aspects of the business to consider, you face a unique set of challenges. Some of those challenges are:
- Structuring the development proforma
- Arranging complicated financing
- Organizing invoices and vendors
- Tracking costs while maintaining a budget
- Accounting management – the need for a fixed asset solution
- Pre-lease tracking and workflow and the management of that space
- Mobility— staying connected to projects underway while scouting new ventures
