Real Estate Development Services
Real estate development is a complex, multi-step process, but GIS Companies simplifies it for you. With expertise in feasibility, financing, design, and execution, we offer end-to-end support to ensure your project’s success. Below, explore each of our core services, complete with actionable insights and examples.
1. Feasibility Studies and Market Analysis
The first step to any successful real estate development project is determining its feasibility. With our comprehensive analysis, you’ll understand the market, potential risks, and financial viability before committing resources.
What We Do:
- Back-of-the-Napkin Analysis: We assess the project’s goals, approximate construction costs, and financing assumptions to uncover early opportunities or red flags.
- Zoning and Site Analysis: Identify zoning constraints, infrastructure needs, and environmental challenges.
- Market Research and Revenue Estimates: Use real-world data to project cash flow, evaluate demand, and position your project competitively.
Why It Matters:
Many projects fail due to overlooked details in the early stages. Our feasibility studies ensure you start with the right foundation.
2. Financing and Capital Structuring
Secure the Capital You Need with Confidence
Real estate projects require capital—and a strategic approach to acquiring it. We help you design a funding plan that minimizes risk and maximizes returns.
Our Financing Services Include:
- Debt and Equity Structuring: Personal capital, GP/LP partnerships, syndication, and creative financing solutions like Opportunity Zone Funds.
- Construction Loans and Beyond: Access funding through banks, credit unions, private lenders, or creative strategies like tax abatements and infrastructure bonds.
- Risk Management: Tailored strategies to mitigate financial risks during early-stage development.
Case Study Highlight:
Every project is unique and has its own set of variables. Our townhome project obtained bank financing for the first building out of four, but its construction budget included clearing, grading, utilities, and foundations for the entire development. During the construction of the first phase, our sales and marketing team hit the ground running with presales. The whole project was presold in four months’ time, clearing the way for phase II financing.

Never cut corners during the planning stage of development. As Frank Lloyd Wright once said, “You can use an eraser on the drafting table or a sledgehammer on the construction site.”
