Custom Development

We will help you determine an opportunity and develop a profitable real estate project on a raw piece of land. This includes the project initial review, budget and scope analysis, and preconstruction services all the way through completed construction.

Pre-packaged Infill Development

While using pre-packaged plans for single family and duplex home developments may seem like a no brainer, construction overruns, bad financing terms, and mismanagement will quickly sink a project. Our expertise and know-how protects you against the unforeseen issues.

Testimonials

HM Capital came into our project at Dominic Row midway through the planning process to make significant changes to improve our floorplans and the overall long-term viability of our project without changing the scope, scale or budget. Small changes in use of floor space and layout, along with utilizing different code requirements left us with a much more viable project.

After purchasing two lots in the Denver Metro area, we were able to utilize HM Capital’s prepackaged plans and specs to construct a rental duplex and a for-sale triplex with minimal work, hassle or learning curve. Our bankers were able to easily underwrite the projects, and we had the benefit of years of experience of not only HM Capital, but also their execution partners, Zackery Enterprises and Zaga Neighborhood Design.

Ben has been my consultant for over four years. I am a top producing Realtor, do fix and flips, have some rental properties and recently started my own real estate company. Through the four years of consulting, Ben at HM Capital helped organize me in a way I did not think was possible. Initially he gave me sound advice on how to create systems through each component of my business along with strategies on how to create stability within my networks. After recently starting my real estate company, Ben created a whole platform for me to use with agents that was better and cheaper than any of the competition out there. I feel confident in my organization and investment tools. The first meeting where I rolled out these new systems my managing broker, who is not overly tech savvy, picked up how to use the system easily, while a potential agent joined our company because of his excitement for the systems! I’ve never bought into any other systems because I naturally lack organization and like to “go with the flow.” The systems that were created allow me to be me while staying organized. Whether you are an organized person and want a cleaner platform or someone like me, Ben can help you achieve your goals. I’ve obviously drank the Kool-Aid and cannot be happier.

We engaged HM Capital for consulting work during the pre-construction phase of the remodel of our full-service restaurant at Denver International Airport. Ben was instrumental in refining communications with the architect and contractor bids to keep things streamlined. We estimate that we saved over 8% (~$400k) in potential costs based on recommendations provided by HM Capital.
