Construction & Real Estate

Helping Build Stronger Financial Futures

The financial requirements of construction and real estate companies have become increasingly complex as they continue to face economic ups and downs, a tight labor market and industry regulations that are in a constant state of flux.

At BerganKDV, we have guided construction contractors, real estate developers, property managers and investors through good and bad economies, always focused on improving the bottom line opportunities. In fact, we serve the construction and real estate industries with a full complement of construction and real estate consulting, services and expertise, ranging from the tactical to the highly strategic.

Business Insights that Go Straight to Your Bottom Line

BerganKDV takes a unique approach to serving clients in the construction industry. We actively participate in industry associations, where many of our team members have attended leadership academies to gain deeper insights into our clients’ issues and concerns. For example, to help clients attract talent in a tight labor market, we can develop more competitive compensation plans, among other solutions. We also provide advisory services on a broad array of issues, from the tax impact of a client’s corporate structure, to decisions about when and how to acquire new equipment, to gauging operational capacity.

Meanwhile, for clients in the real estate industry, we provide a similarly broad set of real estate consulting solutions. At the strategic level, we can provide forecasts and develop pro formas that give our clients realistic perspectives on cashflow and ROI for specific projects. To help their organizations be more resilient, we can also “shock” our forecasts to highlight how cashflow, rental income and ROI could be affected by economic downturns. In addition, real estate clients turn to us for advice and analysis of such issues as employee stock ownership plans, succession planning, and M&A opportunities, to name a few.

Unlike more narrowly focused firms, we also provide value on more strategic issues as well, including forecasting, analyses of cashflow and labor costs and ways to improve back office capabilities. Our key focus is on understanding our client’s current position and their short- and long-term goals — and then providing the expertise and guidance they need to achieve them.
