Most firms hand you a plan. We hand you a leased building.
We don’t hand your asset to a bench. Santiago Illia or Sasha Ezquerra walks every site, shops every competitor and launches every lease-up in person. We lease in English, Spanish and Portuguese, and we stay until your occupancy targets are met.

01How we get you to full
How we get you to full.
- We audit before we lease. Our 360° audit checks your website, listings, Google profile and reviews, then we shop your property and every competitor. You get a true-scenario report: where you stand and what it takes to get full.
- A founder launches your lease-up. Santiago or Sasha walks the site, meets your team and builds the 30-60-90 day plan with your agent. In person, on every project.
- Veteran agents on-site, seven days a week. Every agent we place has 5+ years of leasing experience. They tour, follow up and close 65% of tours into leases, under your guidelines.
- Our own marketing team fills the pipeline. We run your Meta and Google campaigns, listings and local outreach in-house, so leasing and marketing work as one team.
- We know your asset class. Class A, B and C, student, senior or affordable, we have leased it. On LIHTC and other affordable communities, our team turns in every household file complete to compliance.
We track the numbers every week and adjust until your building is full.
