Concord Crest Real Estate (CCRE), a partnership between Crest Real Estate and Concord Wilshire Companies (CW), announced the launch of operations in Miami. The new company facilitates the expansion of Crest and CW’s core real estate platforms to provide industry-leading, full-service land-use advisory and permit-expediting services to the South Florida residential and commercial real estate markets.
CCRE services a wide range of asset types, including single-family, multifamily, office, retail, mixed-use and hospitality in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties. Crest has already established itself as a top entitlement and permit expediting firm in the Greater Los Angeles market, representing iconic projects and serving over $10 billion in developments.
Miami-based Concord Wilshire, with offices in Los Angeles, Phoenix and Atlanta, is a nationally known residential, hotel, and mixed-use real estate development and construction. It has developed and acquired assets totaling over $12 billion. Concord Wilshire has been developing, building and investing in the South Florida market for over 30 years.
“This expansion into South Florida is a natural evolution of our mission: to empower great design with precise execution, and to provide best-in-class support for property owners, developers, architects and consultants navigating increasingly complex entitlement and permitting landscapes,” said Jason Somers, Crest’s president and CCRE co-founder.
With over 50 years of collective real estate development, construction, permit and entitlement expediting, and related industry experience, Crest and Concord are leveraging deep industry expertise and a comprehensive understanding of acquisition, development, and construction, as well as all asset classes, from residential and commercial to mixed-use and specialized properties.
“The venture was born out of what we’ve seen over the past few years — a new era of developments in the South Florida market. Given our decades of experience developing here, many developers have been turning to us for our expertise, guidance and support for their unique development projects and to help them navigate the complex approval processes in the different sub-markets in South Florida,” said Nate Sirang, president of Concord Wilshire and a co-founder of CCRE. “This recent demand has made it clear that our expertise fills a critical gap. So, we took the foundation we’ve built our reputation on at CW and launched a company to deliver that value to our peers and the broader development community,” said Sirang.
“For over a decade, we’ve built a reputation by helping bring some of the world’s most ambitious architectural visions to life—delivering real results through creative, efficient and deeply collaborative work,” said Steven Somers, CEO of Crest and co-founder of CCRE.
CCRE plans to be a full-service, fee-based land-use advisory and permit expediting firm for property owners, financial institutions and related real estate consultants. The company provides a wide-range of services across its platform, including due diligence, land-use and code analysis, permit and entitlement expediting, spearheading community outreach, public hearings, lobbying and government relations.
