Cross Creek

Shortening Timelines with Creative Solutions

When we began construction at Cross Creek, investors asked for a two-year renovation timeline. After researching the site, our team switched from standard rehabs completed on turn to our one-day occupied residential renovation program: completely updating each unit while tenants remained in place. Executing this strategy reduced renovation time of a single unit from 3-5 days down to 1 day. By creating efficiencies and using our team’s extensive expertise to solve problems creatively, Birge & Held completed the project on budget—and in only four months.

PROBLEM SOLVING

To accomplish renovations of occupied units, our team navigated complicated logistical challenges while balancing quality and speed.

AGILE PLANNING

After beginning the project on a two-year timeline, our team changed the plan to allow for one-day renovations with tenants in place—shortening the project to four months.

Limiting Disruption While Raising Value Faster

In project after project, we’ve found innovative ways to increase construction efficiencies—minimizing disruption to tenants, maximizing occupancy, and raising value faster for property owners and investors.
