At Affari, our investment approach is deeply rooted in a comprehensive evaluation, aligning our strategies through four distinct criteria: Optimal Tax Strategy, Strategic Site Potential, Harmonious Neighborhood Aesthetics and Tenant-centric Development.
What sets the Affair Development team apart from other developers is a unique understanding of a local market and the nuances required to navigate permitting. No real estate developer can be successful without a team of quality consultants and the fundamentals of finance necessary to navigate complex capital structures. For over a decade, our team has navigated investments and the alignment of incentives for investors and those working in the trenches.
Financial acumen is pivotal in our operations. We harness a plethora of tools to ensure tax efficiency, from material donations to 501(c)(3) entities post-deconstruction to leveraging Section 179 cost segregations. Additionally, we capitalize on the Inflation Reduction Act tax credits and strategically pinpoint sites in Opportunity Zones, thereby maximizing long-term returns for our discerning investors.
We delve deeply into each site’s unique potential. Our primary focus is the informed evaluation of existing single-family residences, determining the balance between preservation and enhancing site density. In scenarios where retaining the existing structure is unfeasible, we undertake a deconstruction process, pledging our commitment to sustainability by donating reusable materials to local organizations.
Our developments are meticulously designed to coexist harmoniously with their surroundings. Recognizing the rich tapestry of historical contexts in which we operate, we strive to fuse timeless aesthetics with contemporary design elements. For infill projects, our intent is never to dominate but to seamlessly integrate, enhancing the broader neighborhood narrative.
Tenant-centric Development: Central to our ethos is the consideration of the tenant’s viewpoint. We strategically position our developments in the heart of urban landscapes, ensuring proximity to major employment hubs and accessibility via bike paths. Moreover, we recognize the intrinsic value of having food, beverage, and entertainment amenities within a short walk, enriching the urban living experience.
