Building Beyond Tomorrow

Quick Consultation

Our quick consultations offer precise insights tailored to specific property inquiries. These one-off sessions cater to individuals seeking vital information before making purchase offers. We provide high-level analysis and targeted guidance, often involving site visits, to address pressing concerns at the forefront of property transactions. Whether it’s evaluating opportunities or mitigating risks, our consultations deliver the clarity needed to inform your decision-making process confidently.

Due Diligence

EBO’s due diligence service is comprised of two parts: research and analysis. A comprehensive in-person building permit and tenant history search is performed to capture all relevant details associated with building use and form. After, drawing upon our decades of technical expertise in planning and building codes and permit execution, we provide an in-depth analysis of our findings. Our reports serve as a risk assessment and identify processes to eliminate or reduce risk that may impact property value. These reports help our clients make decisions and manage risks; they lay the groundwork for determining property value and help to ensure an efficient real estate transaction.

Development Strategy

A comprehensive analyses of various development scenarios, considering factors such as timeframe, feasibility, and long-term objectives. Navigating the intricacies governing land use and development requires more than just understanding the regulations—it requires knowing how to leverage them effectively. With EBO's development strategy service, you gain access to our expertise in assessing development opportunities tailored to the unique attributes of your property whether it's state density bonus laws, local government programs, or exploring incentives that may not be explicitly stated.

Entitlements

EBO’s entitlement service creates comprehensive project applications for an efficient approval process. We meticulously review plans to ensure code compliance and prevent costly delays or miscommunications.

Today, many land use laws are being passed by the state and imposed upon by local governments for enforcement. This means there are often aspects of the law that may not be immediately apparent or explicitly stated. EBO creates project applications that are strategically crafted to maximize potential benefits while complying with all applicable regulations.

Once your application is submitted, we continue to work closely with local government officials to expedite the approval process. Navigating the intricacies of code compliance across various city agencies, we strive to secure building permits seamlessly, ensuring your project progresses efficiently and on schedule.

Mediation and Negotiation

Successful developments are the cornerstone of vibrant communities. However, development proposals often generate conflicting priorities and concerns. Our mediation and negotiation service provides a collaborative and effective approach to identify and resolve these issues, ensuring mutually beneficial solutions for all parties involved. Grounded in a deep understanding of regulatory frameworks, we are dedicated to achieving successful outcomes through efficient conflict resolution, ultimately saving valuable time and resources for all stakeholders.
