Real Estate Brokerage Services

For Property Owners

Harmonie Park can assist property owners seeking to maximize the value of their property for disposition through a highest and best use analysis and ultimately the sale of their property as a broker.  While we have relationships in all types of development, we are uniquely qualified to match property owners with residential home builders and developers.

Experts in State of California housing laws

Due to an extreme housing shortage, the State of California has enacted numerous housing laws such as SB 330 and State Density Bonus that has facilitated the approval process for residential projects. Harmonie Park has worked with the State’s best housing attorneys and is expert in using these housing laws to help ensure project approvals.

Home builder and developer relationships

Over the last three decades, principals at Harmonie Park have represented some of the country’s largest home builders and developers.  We use our experience on larger projects to maintain relationships with homebuilders and developers who are active in acquisition of residential development sites.

For Investors/Developers

Harmonie Park can assist investors, developers and end-users source properties for projects.

Tailor Goals to Match Market Conditions

We work with organizations to understand real estate goals and objectives. We then take those goals and overlap them with our understanding of market feasibility for residential and commercial projects to craft a target acquisition plan.

Industry Contacts

Through our management of high profile mixed-use projects, we have developed relationships with some of the best and brightest in real estate from architecture to engineering to legal and construction professionals in addition to relationships with other developers. We are also very active in international trade groups such as Urban Land Institute, ICSC, and others.  We leverage these contacts to help seek opportunities for our clients.

1031 DST Exchanges

We typically work with property owners who are interested in re-positioning their property through entitlements to develop a site or sell to builders or other developers. As they sell their property, they often seek 1031 exchange qualified property (business/investment property) as part of an effective tax strategy for tax deferral. Largely, this property has to be actively managed by the property seller.  Harmonie Park Development is happy to now be able to offer an alternative 1031 exchange solution through our work with 1031 Securities Inc., a FINRA-registered broker-dealer focused exclusively on Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs).

You can learn more about 1031 Exchanges and 1031 DSTs here.

For accredited property owners seeking a tax-deferred exit strategy, 1031 DSTs may provide a way to:

  • Reinvest into passive, institutional-sized real estate
  • Defer capital gains under Section 1031 thus deferring State and Federal income taxation upon the sale of the appreciated real estate
  • Eliminate landlord responsibilities while maintaining monthly income potential
  • Ability to diversify by property type and location
  • Provide certainty of closing on acquisition of replacement property through an efficient closing process to meet timing requirements

Through 1031 Securities Inc., we have access to 1031 DSTs focused on different asset classes throughout the United States.
