Austin has proven itself a city at the forefront of the green revolution since it has begun. Many local builders have educated themselves about, and put to good use, sustainable resources and green technologies. It takes more than that to be a successful builder, especially in an area where the recession hasn’t hit so hard yet. Many projects are in progress or in planning as the city focuses on rebuilding downtown. A developer needs to be aware of not only what is ‘in’ right now, but can look into the future at what will be needed. Green Synergy Projects has taken the time to do just that. Green Synergy Projects is a development team based on Austin and places a strong emphasis on market research. The company takes on projects that are beneficial not just to themselves, but to area in which they are building as well. The company has expertise in a variety of developments, including multifamily, medical offices, and retail properties. The three principals in the company each have a solid background in business and financial planning. The company takes a hands on approach to the planning of each project. This includes the financials of each development with proven results. As the name suggests, Green Synergy Projects focuses on environmentally friendly developments. From construction to completion, the company strives to meet the standards set not only by Austin’s Green Building Program, but the national Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design as well. Each design is created with thought to the environment and the reduction of greenhouse emissions and energy usage.
