OUR PORTFOLIO
OUR SERVICES
LAND ACQUISITION
Our strong relationship with cities and our in-depth understanding of the entitlement process allow us to begin precise planning of prospective land parcels even before actual acquisition. Oftentimes, these properties are controlled by cities or counties as part of economic redevelopment or revitalization programs. Such characteristics improve the value and reduce much of the speculative risk since the direction for usage is already established and local government are already committed to and are supportive of the project.
LAND DEVELOPMENT
Once the land is controlled, it undergoes the development process, a detailed planning phase where individual subdivisions and lot designations are approved and finalized. Again, YK America’s partnership approach and its strong ties with city officials are invaluable during this stage. What sets us apart is our ability to create an open forum with public agencies and to have a thorough understanding of the cities’ goals and forecasts. This insight, coordinated with macro- and microeconomic market study, allows us to formulate a well-designed master plan for each project. The end product is turning raw land into a parcel with a specific use.
CONSTRUCTION
When development is completed, the project receives green light to begin construction. YK America retains land ownership and engages professional services from architects, engineers and consultants. Once the project is approved by the city, building construction can take place. YK America has a network of professionals and contractors who carry out the work within budget and time, always having the investors’ best interests in mind.
