Capabilities

What McGraw & Co does in real estate.

Site Selection & Acquisition

Evaluating commercial properties for operational suitability — zoning compliance, infrastructure capacity, utilities, logistics access, and expansion potential.

Zoning & Entitlement Strategy

Navigating land-use planning, zoning approvals, and entitlement processes across complex regulatory environments and multiple jurisdictions.

Municipal Negotiations

Direct engagement with city planners, zoning boards, economic development agencies, and elected officials to advance development approvals.

Special Use Permits

Securing special use permits and regulatory clearances required for complex, compliance-driven developments in regulated industries.

Development Management

Overseeing architecture, engineering, and construction teams to design and deliver compliant facilities on time and on budget.

Capital Partner Coordination

Structuring relationships between development projects and capital sources — lenders, investors, and institutional partners.

Development Philosophy

Location and capital are necessary. They are not sufficient.

Successful development depends on alignment between regulatory feasibility, operational needs, timing, and execution. McGraw & Co brings operating experience to real estate decisions — and real estate discipline to operating decisions.
