Construction Phase
Building on the solid foundation we laid in the Pre-Construction phase, the Leedway team works hard to ensure that the execution of the project goes according to plan developed. We use project control measures to ensure schedule and budgetary targets are met. Early detection and reporting of issues help minimize or avoid impacts on the project. To ensure a seamless flow of communication, our team actively coordinates with various stakeholders including architects, engineers, contractors and subtrades, surveyors, sales and marketing, procurement, warranty, legal, and other project-specific teams. Our scope management process tracks changes and upgrades approved by buyers and updates the budget and schedule accordingly. We implement a two-step Quality Management system: Step 1 is carried out by our field staff and Step 2 involves the warranty customer service team.
Post-Construction Phase
A key stage in the project is the Post Construction phase. This stage is where all work carried out in the previous phases is tied together and finalized. This is where our impact on buyers’ perception, and owner’s satisfaction, is greatest. Our team works to transition from construction to closing as smoothly as possible. We complete all closeout items and participate in the final Warranty Review and Performance Audit. We carry out our internal inspection ahead of the buyer’s Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) to ensure any deficiencies missed in Step 1 of the two-step Quality Management system are corrected.
The entire construction process can seem like an arduous journey, especially when you factor in this post-construction phase. However, these methods are in place to protect our clients and make sure they are satisfied with their final product for years to come, ensuring the feasibility, quality, and safety of the building and our clients.
Commercial Investment
Target the Right Investment
It is essential to implement flexible investment strategies targeting the right opportunities especially with changing real estate landscape. We analyze and use our metric system to determine the needs of our clients by:
- Sales comparison approach: recent comparable sales of properties with similar characteristics—most common and suitable for both new and old properties
- Cost approach: the cost of the land and construction, minus depreciation— suitable for new construction
- Income approach: based on expected cash inflows
At Leedway, we study market conditions and assess general trends to make sound investment decisions. We target undervalued and poorly managed properties and apply our proven Property Management formula to enhance the value of your investment.
Using our proven Property Management strategy, we take a 3-step approach to enhance the value of your investment. We handle every step in managing your investment property:
Long-term tenants
Step 1 involves securing stable, long-term tenants.
Value-added initiatives
Step 2 involves Identifying and implementing value-added initiatives, both physical (renovations) and systems improvements.
Maintenance
Step 3 focuses on protecting your asset by managing the maintenance of the property.
This 3-step approach aims to reduce operating costs and generate higher income. Once these steps are complete, owners can enjoy the additional income or sell the property at its new, enhanced value.
