Creating A Governance Plan Aligned with Your Marketing and Exit Strategy
Projects of Seaport’s scale and complexity require strategic, upfront governance structures to succeed. Our governance team – one of the largest and most experienced in the country – will partner with you at the outset to think through how the various Seaport project components fit together and will work with you to create a strategic development and sales program that aligns with your long-term plan and protects you from exposure to project liabilities. We have helped many of the nation’s largest developers do just this for mixed-use projects across the country.
Should Seaport include for-sale residences, we also have the expertise to help PWD understand regulatory requirements under the Bureau of Real Estate (BRE). We have close working relationships with top BRE officials and have helped our clients win expedited approval of numerous projects.
