Real estate investment can be complicated, time consuming and confusing for those unfamiliar with the process, especially in the New York City market. Our investment team has experience analyzing, underwriting, and negotiating terms on potential real estate acquisitions ranging from small multi-family properties to sites for billion-dollar developments. The Mascia Development team has dedicated countless hours researching, analyzing, and studying our targeted investment area. This provides us with detailed insight into our market, which allows us to make informed investment decisions on behalf of the company and our investors.

The steps the Mascia Development team takes to deploy our investment capital include:

Sourcing

When it comes to sourcing potential properties for investments, we realize how important to approach this market from many angles in order to acquire the best properties at the best price. Therefore we combine several proven strategies when locating potential properties. Mascia Development capitalizes on our trusted relationships with local real estate brokers, local market contacts, unsolicited targeted offers, and word of mouth.

Market Analysis

Before we acquire any property, our in-house market research and financial analysis capabilities are relied upon to create detailed feasibility studies to create a tailored strategy for the investment that results in the highest possible returns on investment. Our investment team includes a former Director of Market Research and Strategic Planning for a leading multi-national real estate sales and marketing firm. Through our own proprietary research, collecting and analyzing statistics from trusted data providers, and by leveraging our extensive network of local partners and contacts, we create detailed reports that provide unparalleled market intelligence.

Financial Analysis

Our robust proprietary financial model is customizable to the needs of each individual deal or analysis. We have on-staff finance professionals to determine the underwriting practicability of any given deal. Regardless of deal size, our key objectives are to analyze the property in a way that utilizes the best information, considers multiple sets of assumptions, and results in a thoughtfully conceived investment plan.

Financing

We have established relationships with some of the most active debt and equity providers in the market, allowing us to obtain financing for each new acquisition or investment, including acquisition or construction loans, and mezzanine financing.
