- We are energized and motivated team members.
- We believe our clients are community builders, and we share – and work to support – their mission of making affordable housing for all a reality.
- We seek to add value, not costs. We look for ways that we can do more without charging more, to benefit the residents and the communities.
- We operate according to the sage wisdom of Yogi Berra: In theory there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is. We pride ourselves on planning based on the theory and taking action based on current reality.
