Our Services
Land Identification
Haven has access to both on and off market properties and deep networks of landowners who are willing to sell to the right buyer with the right vision for their property. We understand that land is more than an asset. It is personal and needs to be treated as such. We will identify potential properties for you, based on your goals and budget, and present multiple options for consideration.
Development Assessments
Finding a property is only the first step. Determining the buildability of a property is the next crucial phase of the development process. This often requires extensive geologic and civil engineering assessments, as well as deep dives into local codes and regulations. Through this work, we will help define the possibilities of a property with your vision in mind.
Thematic Strategy & Construction Method Assessment
Are you interested in passive house design? Off-grid independence? Sustainable building methods? In this process, we will work with you to define what is important to you and help you assess options and resources to bring those elements together in your project.
Holistic Property Design
We will work with a wide range of architects, landscape architects, and civil engineers to develop a master plan for your project. From driveway placement to interior treatments, we view your entire project as one body of work with each piece complimentary of the next.
Land Entitlement
Once a property has been selected and assessed, next begins the work of entitling the land. This process includes working with local municipalities to receive approval to develop the land pursuant to local guidelines and regulations.
Land Development
Next begins the installation and configuration of the infrastructure required to bring your vision to life. Here we will install utilities, build access roads, dig wells and septic fields, all in a unique combination based on the specific needs of your project.
Project Management
While the construction of your home may be managed by a general contractor, Haven can continue to serve as your project manager, sitting on your side of the table throughout the development and construction of your property.
Preservation Options
A legacy is only as good as the protections it has in place to ensure its longevity. We can guide you through the process of assigning preservation and conservation easements on your property, ensuring that the unique characteristics of the property which initially drew you to it are preserved in perpetuity.
