Why Skylight

We bring diversified experience, great design, education and a relentless commitment to quality, to every project.

Investment Approach

Our investment strategy centers on strategic value creation.

Whether a project is a new construction single-family residential subdivision or an adaptive reuse multifamily renovation, our goal is to add value at every step of the development process. That includes:

  • Acquiring property for development at below market price

  • Using strategic alliances to gain zoning and building approvals that make a property more valuable

  • Value engineering the design phase to reduce costs during construction

  • Providing thorough supervision of contractors during the construction process to prevent cost overruns and scheduling delays

  • Utilizing strong marketing techniques to lease/sell a completed project at the highest price in the shortest amount of time
