Real Estate Addicts

We had the pleasure to chat with Bryan Lee, one of the three founding principles at Transom Real Estate on his career in real estate development. Bryan and his partners each hail from Related Beal where they gained experience working on a variety of large-scale projects in various sectors of development. The very first project Transom took on was 212 Stuart St., a major undertaking consisting of 126 residential, 19 stories and 146,0000-square-foot ground-out development in Bay Village, one of Boston’s most desirable neighborhoods. We discus construction pricing, compare the pros and cons of developing apartments versus condos, how Transom filters opportunities, the merits of debt brokerage, how Transom uses opportunity funds to finance their deals, what makes for good design and why Bryan and his partners are firm believers in spending on design to distinguish their projects. We had a ton of fun recording this episode and hope you will enjoy it too! Thanks for your reviews on iTunes, your feedback and as
