The cornerstone of Keystone Development’s success

 is a disciplined approach to market evaluation, site selection, design, quality construction, and solid long-term management. Keystone is committed to the highest quality developments through extensive due-diligence, innovative approaches to design and construction, and impeccable attention to details. Dedicated to excellence since 1999, Keystone has developed over 1,800 apartments of senior and workforce housing with a market value in excess of $180 million in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ohio. With extensive experience in new construction, acquisition/rehabilitation, historic adaptation, and the ability to move quickly, Keystone is able to take advantage of opportunities as they occur.

Real estate development requires knowledge of sophisticated information in finance, marketing, site selection, market analysis, and construction. Having expertise in these areas ensures a development will meet the high standards required in today’s real estate market. Keystone achieves this through its broad base of experience with the principal owner of Keystone having twenty years of involvement in the development, construction, and management of commercial and multi-family real estate.

Collaboration is initiated early in the conception and planning stages of every development. Community support and participation is essential to the success of a project. To achieve this, Keystone utilizes various funding sources including Section 42 Tax Credits, Home Funds, Federal Home Loan Bank AHP Funds,

tax incremental financing, community development block grants, tax-exempt bonds, and conventional financing. Each of the company’s developments must meet a rigorous set of requirements. Extensive forecasts and modeling ensure the long-term viability of each of the Keystone developments. Outside real estate professionals are hired to ensure the accuracy of market feasibility and demographic analysis.

The Keystone advisory services assist developers, general partners, and non-profit organizations with all aspects of real estate development. A variety of advisory services are available such as feasibility studies, due-diligence studies, Section 42 applications, debt and equity financing, market studies, zoning and regulatory analysis, financial forecasting, and project budgeting. Clients can utilize Keystone’s experience and expertise that has been acquired from its own developments.
