Sustainability Focus:

WE HARNESS THE POWER OF SYSTEMS THINKING TO CREATE PLACES OF ENDURING VALUE, SOCIAL CONNECTION, AND EXEMPLARY ENVIRONMENTAL STANDARDS.

Today, our development impacts range from transforming buildings through deep green retrofits to advocating for innovative policies and solutions for the buildings of tomorrow. Our new development pursuits feature industry-leading techniques such as electrification, healthy building materials, resilient design, and incorporating renewable energy wherever possible. We take a data-driven approach to monitor and analyze environmental performance at all our properties to uncover further energy and water efficiency opportunities.

We invest in the energy efficiency, water conservation, and resilience of our buildings to lessen our demand for natural resources, in turn mitigating climate change, reducing our operating costs, and improving the health and safety of our residents. These strategies provide economic resilience and add value to our properties, strengthening our financial returns and allowing us to ultimately deploy more capital to achieve even deeper impact.

WE FOCUS ON THE PEOPLE WHO WILL USE THE SPACE:

Our goal is to develop buildings that will stand the test of time from both a durability and aesthetic perspective. Every one of our developments begins with the people who will ultimately use the space. Our discovery process is designed to uncover:

  • Who will live here?

  • How will they interact with the living and common area spaces?

  • How can we optimize the space to foster healthy living and social connection?

  • What will the building look like?

  • How can we create healthier interiors?

  • What is the impact to the community at large?

WE FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY GOAls:

Each MBT development exemplifies what conscientious, sustainable real estate development can achieve. Our in-house experts collaborate with like-missioned architects, designers, engineers, and community leaders to ensure we’re implementing leading-edge sustainability innovations, including:

  • LEED® certification 

  • Water conservation

  • Solar powered technology

  • Materials use & recycling

  • High-efficiency lighting, heating & cooling

  • Energy monitoring & feedback

  • Energy-saving insulation, double-glazed windows & solar shading devices

ENDURING VALUE IS THE COMMON DENOMINATOR:

Ensuring profitability for our investors, clients, and our company is an important component of our strategy. We collaborate to provide the design, development, project management, and construction oversight to deliver properties on-time and on-budget. Our process contemplates the following:

  • How energy efficient is the development?

  • What are the upfront costs?

  • What are the lifetime savings and costs of operation?

  • What’s the long-term value to the stakeholders?
