Construction management
SD-Cap
SD-Cap Construction Management works as an independent owner's representative on multifamily, commercial, industrial, and senior living capital projects. It is certified as a Minority Business Enterprise and represents ownership rather than acting as the general contractor.
On a multifamily renovation or repositioning the engagement starts before construction, validating project scope, establishing realistic budgets, coordinating with the design team, evaluating procurement strategies, and identifying risks. Through construction it coordinates contractors, consultants, and stakeholders to closeout, with occupied renovations, phased work, lender requirements, and tenant experience treated as part of the oversight.
Construction finance management is a separate line covering budget creation, cost forecasting, expense and cash flow tracking, contract negotiation, and material sourcing, with real-time budget reports issued to clients every week. Risk management runs alongside it, categorizing design, procurement, contractor, site, and compliance risks, assigning ownership of each, linking them to measurable mitigation steps, and weighing mitigation cost against exposure before committing to it.
The team combines project managers, real estate consultants, general contractors, on-site construction auditors, project consultants, and administrative staff. SD-Cap says its five-phase management process delivers cost savings of 5% to 10% for multifamily and commercial clients nationally. Fees are not published; ask how the fee is structured against project cost and what the weekly reporting includes.
Best for
Apartment owners and syndicators running renovation, repositioning, or capital improvement programs who want independent oversight of contractors, budgets, and schedule. Not a general contractor: SD-Cap represents the owner and does not self-perform the work.
