CORE STRATEGY:

Agile Execution through Active Principal Involvement

Jay Paul Company concentrates on the identification and creation of unique opportunities in dynamic markets with strong demand and significant development constraints. Our key decision makers take an active, hands-on approach throughout the investment, development, and management process and can respond quickly and decisively in a rapidly changing and competitive marketplace.

Proven Development Approach Leveraging Established Relationships

Through long term alliances with highly experienced, well-capitalized contractors, architects and consultants, we effectively leverage collective expertise early in the development process when the main drivers of cost, strategy, scope and schedule are most easily influenced. Our established development approach consistently results in well-designed, and cost effective projects delivered on-time and within budget.

Substantial Capital Raising Capability

The Company has a demonstrated ability to attract the institutional capital required for large scale projects. Since 2000, we have closed more than $2.5 billion in debt and equity financings with a breadth of sources including Bank of America, Credit Suisse First Boston, EuroHypo, JP Morgan Chase, MetLife, Morgan Stanley, Northwestern Mutual Life, Walton Street Capital and Wells Fargo.

Focus on Smart, Sustainable Development

Jay Paul Company is at the forefront of green, sustainable development with over five million square feet of LEED certified Gold office space and a commitment to energy conservation and sustainable management practices throughout our portfolio.
