Van Zandt Development acquires and redevelops urban property, commonly re-using portions of structures that would likely be demolished by others. Our goal is to enhance the communities we work in through developing high quality products that will retain their value over time. For investors, we produce expected or better returns within established timeframes. If you are interested in investing, get in touch. If you have a single- or multi-family property with development potential, we'd like to hear about it. Give us a call.
