WE AREN’T ADVOCATING THAT YOU GET ON BOARD OUR ECONOMIC NUMBERS, BUT INVITE YOU TO

Run Your Own Analysis.

USE THE INPUTS WE PROVIDE BELOW.
(1) Open your proforma.
(2) Apply 42% of your vertical construction cost basis as a five-year depreciation benefit into your forecast.
(3) Apply the five-year depreciation in your timeline to coincide or start with the issuance of Certificate of Occupancy.
(3) Compare and contrast how this five-year depreciation elevates your performance, specifically your TARGET IRR.
(4) Reconcile your discovery of this new benefit in this light. Our framework has been in the market for 16+ years so while it is new to your organization and braintrust, it is not a new thing.

TARGET FORECAST vs. ACTUAL IRR:

If your target IRR on your new project is 20%, how would exceeding that forecast by 2 to 3 points enhance your reputation? Would the investment partners who sponsor your project(s) invest more capital with you?

STRUGGLING WITH DISBELIEF?
If the significant due diligence by the legal and tax departments of these well known brands (Chevron USA, NRG+ Energy, Embassy Suites, Koch Industries) caused them to recommend a full embrace of the framework, is it fair for you to conclude that maybe your research team needs to up its’ game? If getting 150% better performance, value with a higher exit value on your new portfolio matters, connect with us.

WE EXPECT YOU’ll FIND IT STRANGE THAT A CONTRACTOR HAS A

Strong, Fiscally Focused Message For Developers.

Because every company is challenged to showcase value that differentiates itself. We are an astute technical company driven to separate ourselves with a message about financial performance and how that outcome elevates your reputation as a Developer. Through pre-construction value engineering deliver unrivaled value with:

(1) economic gains of stabilized projects as noted above,
(2) a predictable completion schedule,
(3) predictable completion cost and
(4) a safety record shows no commercial or worker comp claims.


We are not chasing labor in the marketplace like many rivals who are challenged to meet their completion schedules. Due to the tight labor market, most contractors are at the mercy of subcontractors’ logistical battles. Consequently, project timelines are impacted, completion costs rise and beneath the circumstances are change order battles caused by the conflict of labor supply.

A SAN ANTONIO MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPER IS THE FOCAL POINT OF THIS SPECIFIC

Capital Markets Case Study

San Antonio TX Multifamily Development: This is a case study about how a developer with a $32M mixed-use development project closed their financing after longer than expected delays.

Why? Because our fiduciary team positioned th developer to offer six candidate Sponsors / Liquidity Partners, the option to accept a $4.3M bargaining chip in the final negotiations. This $4.3M chip is derived from the Developers’ deployment of a Patented Sustainable Architectural Design. In this specific case, the bargaining chip delivers the return of the $4.3M of capital provided by a liquidity partner (LP). This was the colossal change for the Developer seeking critical liquidity required to complete the project financing.

The preferred return of the liquidity partner’s $5.5M equity investment is the result of a Special Allocation of $11.7M of depreciation on the $32M mixed-use development. This powerful economic outcome is derived from a proven process of design that has a 16 year history. Special allocations of depreciation in Bustamante’s development model and framework is a powerful incentive that as a Developer you can leverage to reward Sponsors / Liquidity Partners to choose your project. In the competitive world of commercial real estate it is imperative that you offer a distinction of value that separates your project from rivals.

Conclusion: this developer has made us their dedicated construction trade partner for many reasons - cost, delivery, reliable labor, safety record, expertise, etc. Our best value was elevating the Developer’s attraction to the capital markets.

Depending on the economic feasibility, this may include energy storage, utilities, broadband, advanced telecommunications, collaboration, meetings and cloud-based cybersecurity technology as well as the most advanced building security systems powered by intelligent sensors to maximize convenience and security for tenants.

Early discussions with Pace financing firms has stirred significant interest in our infrastructure-as-a-service (IAAS) and energy-as-s-service (EAAS) model for a myriad of reasons. But especially due to the fact that we deliver intelligent and energy efficient buildings, with a proven standard.

Design-Build Services

 

As an alternative to supplying owners with a construction estimate based on architectural drawings and specifications, Bustamante offers design-build services. By working with your selected design team from the design phase of a project to its construction, we help assure that the costs of the project stay within your budget—and that the integrity of the design is still maintained through a close working relationship with a third-party architect or designer.

Additional advantages of a design-build approach may include:

Single point of contact

With one source of accountability, owners won’t have to act as an intermediary between the contractor and architect/designer.

Better communication

With “design” and “build” professionals on the same team, potential problems can be uncovered sooner and communication among all parties is enhanced.

Shorter schedules

Because you start without a lengthy formal bid process and combine your contractor and design team, time efficiencies can be realized. We do not outsource our delivery responsibilities to a myriad of subcontractors which provides us with better control over schedules and costs.

Quality control

A unified team removes ambiguities about materials and specs, leaving the architect/designer and contractor focused on delivering the client’s exact vision.

To talk more about our design-build experience, contact us.



At Bustamante, we believe that any job worth doing must be done safely—without exception. All project participants must embrace the concept of team performance and personal accountability before being allowed to participate in the construction process.
