About
Based in Washington DC, Madison Investments is a family owned and operated real-estate Development Company that focuses on the refurbishment and restoration of buildings in the nation’s capital. Our on-going projects consist mainly of residential multi-unit urban infill buildings, as well as some mixed use properties.
The Philosophy
Build to exceptional standards within the market with intelligent procurement and a dedicated in-house team. Create properties that are a benchmark for our marketplace. Combine design and floor plans that are intelligently laid out with the buyer in mind. Create common spaces that are unique and exceptional. Build with the notion that the value of your name will create an appreciating investment long after you have finished.
The Methodology
Effective business management, market awareness and foresight are a powerful guide to greater productivity and unforeseen opportunities. Continuous market research; focus groups; home buyer surveys are the little things that make a big difference. Application of small product enhancement techniques, which are common place in the technology and customer service world of large corporations, can be easily adopted to help to better understand your buyers and tenants. This in-turn can facilitate greater returns and more intelligently planned and built developments. These are but some of the methods adopted by Madison Investments.
The Future
As a growing company Madison is structuring itself to begin developing multiple projects in 2011 while at the same time diversifying its investments into income producing assets and new ground-up construction projects in the District.
Investing with Madison
Beginning in Q1-2012 Madison Investments will be making available the first of its funds available to outside investors. To facilitate our growth and share in our success this will be the next important step in the organic growth of our company.
The details for this fund and its required committed capital as well as its investment structure will become available in Q3-2011.
