Gaining
the proper approval to develop a piece of property is a challenging hurdle under
the best of circumstances and a frustrating maze for most who attempt it. Long-term
relationships with senior staff and elected officials in Colorado Springs and
El Paso County, coupled with a wide range of complimentary disciplines that
can be drawn on lead to consistent success with entitlement projects.
The
difference between a successful and failed project is often attributable to
the planning that occurs at the initial stages on the project. The experience
Urban Strategies, and associated professionals, have gathered over many years
and in working through many business cycles allows owners of real estate to
capitalize on opportunities and avoid mistakes.
Opportunities
to protest property taxes are available during May of re-assessment years,
i.e., 2003, 2005, etc. Owners of commercial property can oftentimes save thousands
of dollars by challenging the County Assessors' estimate of value. Fees are
structured to split any savings that are gained, and there are never charges
if there are no savings to the client. Urban Strategies record of success
is unparalleled.
