We Don’t Want You to Have Doubts

At Concretized, we understand that investing in real estate development is a significant decision. That’s why we’ve compiled the most frequently asked questions to provide you with the clarity and transparency you deserve. Our model is designed to empower you, transforming you from a passive investor into an active, sovereign owner of your own project in Florida’s dynamic market.

About The Concretized Model

What exactly does Concretized offer?

Concretized is not an investment fund or a development company seeking capital. We are a strategic management firm that provides a turnkey platform for sophisticated investors and family offices to directly own and develop prime Florida properties. We act as your operational command and strategic architect, managing the entire process so you become the 100% owner of your own real estate development company, without the burden of daily management.

How does Concretized's model differ from investing in a real estate fund?

The difference is fundamental and is based on three pillars:
Absolute Ownership and Control: Unlike funds where you hold an indirect stake and have no control, with our model, you are the sole and sovereign owner of 100% of the asset through your own LLC. All key strategic decisions are yours.
Radical Transparency: Forget about opaque fund structures and hidden fees. Our open-book model gives you full access to every invoice, contract, and financial record of the project.
Undiluted Returns: Traditional funds erode their profits with management fees (1-2% annually) and a profit sharing (carried interest) of 20% or more. With our model, by eliminating intermediaries, you capture 100% of the net profit generated by the development.

If I am the owner, what exactly is Concretized's role?

Concretized acts as your strategic manager and orchestra conductor throughout the entire project. Our responsibilities include:
Identifying and Structuring the Opportunity: We conduct institutional-grade analysis and due diligence to present you with a complete investment thesis with detailed financial projections (ROI, IRR, etc.).
Creating Your Structure: We guide you through the creation of your own LLC in Florida, ensuring you are the legal owner of the project.
Orchestrating Execution: We assemble and coordinate a “dream team” of pre-vetted elite professionals (real estate agents, architects, builders, etc.) who are hired directly by your LLC.
Managing the Project: We oversee permitting, construction, budgets, and timelines, turning market complexities such as construction costs or insurance into managed variables.
Optimizing the Exit: We manage the final monetization strategy, whether the sale or lease of the asset, to maximize your return.

About the Investment Process

What is the investment process like from start to finish?

Our process is structured in four clear and transparent steps:
Step 1: Opportunity and Financial Plan: We present you with a development opportunity with a complete financial analysis and a detailed investment thesis.
Step 2 : Your Ownership Structure: We guide you through the establishment of a Florida LLC that will be 100% owned by you and the legal owner of the land and project.
Step 3: Coordinated Execution: Acting as your representatives, we manage the team of experts (architects, builders, etc.) hired by your LLC to execute the plan.
Step 4: Strategic Exit and Return of Capital: Upon completion, we arrange the sale or leaseback of the asset. 100% of the net proceeds flow directly into your LLC’s bank account.

Who chooses architects, builders and other professionals?

Concretized leverages its elite network to select and introduce you to the most reputable and suitable professionals for your project. However, the final approval decision rests with you, and these professionals are hired directly by your LLC, ensuring their fiduciary duty is exclusively to you.

What kind of properties do they develop?

Our versatile platform allows us to capitalize on a wide range of opportunities in Florida. This includes, but is not limited to:
Residential: Luxury single-family home communities, waterfront properties, and build-to-rent communities.
Commercial & Mixed-Use: Boutique office buildings, shopping centers anchored by essential services, and mixed-use projects combining residential, commercial, and office space.
Industrial & Logistics: State-of-the-art warehouses and distribution centers to meet the demands of global and e-commerce.

On Costs, Profitability and Risks

How is Concretized compensated?

We believe in complete transparency. Our compensation is a clear, predefined strategic management fee for the execution of your vision. Unlike funds, our model eliminates asset management fees, acquisition fees, and most importantly, there is no “carried interest” or profit sharing. Our success is 100% aligned with yours: delivering the most profitable project possible.

What kind of profitability can I expect?

Each project is presented with an institutional-quality financial pro forma detailing projected performance metrics such as Return on Investment (ROI), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Return on Equity (cash-on-cash). While each opportunity is unique, our goal is to capture the “development spread”—the profit margin between the total construction cost and the market value of the completed asset—delivering 100% of that value to you.

What are the risks associated with this investment?

Every investment in real estate development involves risks, and it is crucial that investors are able to assume them, including the possible total loss of their investment. These risks include, among others, market volatility, construction cost overruns, permitting delays, and liquidity issues, as these are long-term investments. Our model is designed to mitigate these risks through rigorous due diligence, the use of elite professionals, and the flexibility that comes with complete control to adapt the strategy to market conditions.

About Florida and Legal/Tax Issues

Why focus exclusively on Florida?

Florida isn’t simply an attractive market; it’s a strategic imperative. It presents a unique confluence of positive factors:
Unstoppable Population Growth: It’s the fastest-growing state in the nation, generating a steady, structural demand for new properties.
Pro-Business Climate: Consistently ranked #1 for starting a business, with a tax and regulatory environment that attracts massive corporate migration.
Robust Economy: Its GDP consistently exceeds the national average, creating a virtuous cycle of employment, talent attraction, and real estate demand.
Tax Advantages: The absence of state income, capital gains, and estate taxes offers unmatched tax efficiency to maximize and preserve returns.

I'm an international investor. Is this model right for me?

Yes, our model is strategically designed to address the complexities of cross-border investing. Creating a US LLC is a fundamental pillar that not only grants you control and liability protection but is also a crucial vehicle for efficient tax and estate planning. We help navigate critical issues for non-resident investors, such as the US Estate Tax and FIRPTA compliance upon sale, becoming your trusted advisor throughout the entire investment lifecycle.
