WHEN A PROJECT IS SUCCESSFUL YOU OFTEN DON'T KNOW WHY OR WHAT SPECIFICALLY MADE IT THAT WAY. IT'S JUST THE EXPERIENCE OF THE PLACE THAT MAKES IT RIGHT.

As part of a team working on the 1984 World's Fair in New Orleans, with some of the greatest Architects in the history of our Country, I was given this creed "We will be successful when people don't single out our contribution to the place and visitors enjoy the entire experience by just being there, and they may not fully understand all the specifics of why" - (Richard Foy - Communication Arts, Inc.).

What we do





DESIGN COORDINATION



Experienced at working with some of the world's most preeminent designers or bringing locally experienced professionals depending upon the project's needs. It's important to establish the right team and to ensure everyone has the clear direction to achieve the goal​.



DEVELOPMENT



Being experienced at the entire process from conception through the project close-out is critical, as well as being able to deliver on the promises and vision for each project is what makes DM Brock successful in each of its endeavors. ​



FINANCE



Working with Lenders, private institutions and investors to build trust and respect while working through the financial challenges as they come, has been the cornerstone of success. Also understanding that building on a project's return over time helps avoid continued to require reinvestment so a project will grow value organically over time. ​



BRAND & IDENTITY



As part of the creative process the project brand, identity and vision should never waver and always be at the forefront of every decision. In our experience failure often comes when the project loses sight of its vision.​



CONSTRUCTION



Working with complex teams and having experience with incredibly challenging environments, using contractors from multiple locations and sometime foreign countries, has given a lesson in communication and clear direction to achieve success in a project.



ASSET MANAGEMENT



Maintaining the quality, experience and revenue flow while working with cost effective management, leasing, sales, taking care of tenants, and cooperating with the Community Associations to protect the Owner's & Investors assets until the final close-out of the project.​
