Client- centered Approach

Client- centered Approach

At Cornerstone Real Estate Consulting, we practice a “client-centered” approach to managing the pre-development phase of a project by developing entitlement strategies that align with a client’s business objectives for each project.

About The President

The company’s president, Ed Mountford, is a successful community developer specializing in land entitlement and pre-development project management. He has established a consulting practice to lend his knowledge and experience to landowners, developers, and financial institutions that need assistance in identifying and achieving their entitlement objectives.

What We Do

Cornerstone brings value to our clients by navigating the complex and cumbersome entitlement process to position (or reposition) your investment for maximum value and liquidity. We manage all stages of the pre-development process – from feasibility analysis and project design to entitlement processing and improvement plans.

If you own coastal property, no other consulting firm has more experience developing projects in the Coastal Zone than Cornerstone Real Estate Consulting. As a veteran community developer, Ed knows how to manage the pre-development process, control costs, and get projects approved.

Let us help you achieve your real estate entitlement and development objectives.

Testimonials

Cornerstone Realestate Consulting

When we decided to develop our coastal property we had no idea what it would take to get approval from the city and ultimately the Coastal Commission. We hired Ed because we needed a consultant with experience as a developer/builder to advise us on alternative development strategies and manage the entitlement process. I would strongly recommend Cornerstone to any property owner who needs an experienced coastal developer to get projects through the Coastal Commission.
