Approach

A new platform built on established experience.

10D brings together complementary principal experience across ownership, investment, operations, entitlement, design and construction.

Disciplined underwriting

Each potential development is evaluated on development yield, stabilized cash flow, debt-service coverage and long-term value, with sensitivity testing around rents, costs, rates and lease-up.

Integrated perspective

The principals evaluate each opportunity from the combined perspectives of ownership, operations, entitlement, design, construction and long-term asset performance.

Long-term orientation

10D builds to own. The communities it develops are intended to be held and operated for the long term, with conservative underwriting, prudent leverage and the flexibility to refinance when appropriate.

Development approach

One team from site to stabilized operations

Every project is underwritten on project-level economics with conservative assumptions. The same principals who entitle and build each community stay on to own and operate it, which gives lenders and tax-credit investors one accountable team for the life of the project.

Leadership

Two principals. Shared ownership.

Principal experience

Operating depth and development breadth.

Market-rate, affordable, senior, mixed-use and LIHTC communities the principals helped deliver over three decades.

About this track record. Every community shown was developed and owned by the Devco family of companies before 10D was formed, during the principals' tenure there. 10D has not yet completed a project of its own.
