Infill redevelopment is appealing as a career choice, despite its increasing risk and complexity.  The idea of creating custom homes and boutique townhouse projects is a romantic daydream for many, and a reality only for a lucky few. I am fortunate to celebrate my thirteenth anniversary as a full time inner city developer in Calgary. 

For my new home sales business I focus on inner city detached and semi-detached product, in high demand communities.  I produce an urban family home designed to exceed expectation. I only build a few homes per year, so I need to make each of them as exceptional as possible. .

In my purpose built rental business I mainly pursue small townhouse projects in urban, walkable communities, often called ‘trendy’. My interest centres on value creation, what it means, and how to execute. For more info, check out my Substack or frequent blog posts.

For any work I’m leading, budget stewardship often allows me to bring in a few design and finishing elements of houses costing hundreds of thousands more, while staying right on target.  Intensive site management avoids costly errors and waste, and I constantly seek to improve upon my processes and suppliers to increase efficiency.  My family always lives in a home we build just for ourselves, and this commonality and shared experience informs my knowledge of how integer built homes function so I can share it with others. I welcome brief conversation with those interested in infill development that share my core beliefs on value, legacy and infill project execution.
