Catena principals are experts in every key area that impacts our end product. Our expansive backgrounds in development, construction, sales, marketing and design – as well as owning and operating other successful businesses – provides coverage across our entire spectrum of operations and services. Our strategic relationships that have been formed over years of doing business are difficult to replicate on a short time frame. Our collective business entities generate considerable purchasing power, leverage and access for the benefit of Catena projects. Efficiencies cover commodities, labor, financing, design, interiors and more. We work with our investment banks to hedge commodity price fluctuation in order to minimize the impact on our purchasing and margins, interest rate hedge when necessary, and have the ability to custom tailor housing market hedges to limit downside exposure on projects in the pipeline.
