Responding to a perceived need in the small commercial building services space, Laura Reddy NCIDQ, CEO of NuZine — a New York-based interior design and project management firm specializing in for all commercial uses and capital improvements up to 50,000 square feet — has launched aNu Facilities Company, offering full-service property management for commercial properties under 25,000 square feet. aNu provides the full range of facilities and operation services, including in-house handyman repairs and maintenance, record keeping, supervision of all building systems, security supervision, cleaning, tenant move coordination, renovations and Local Law 97 oversight.
Complementing the on-site teams, aNu’s services include an exclusive leasing team through Savitt Partners and inhouse design, architecture and project management services through NuZine.
“Large and mid-size property owners either have full-service staff or the capacity to outsource services to high-end providers. But smaller owners, especially those with Class B- and C assets, have long been at a disadvantage because of the astronomical costs of individual outside vendors,” Reddy said. “Our solution for them is a management firm that is a one-stop building services shop that is directly accountable to ownership.”
The mission of aNu Facilities Company is to provide 24/7 service that offers practical and cost-effective results within applicable laws and buildings codes. Moreover, the firm’s ability to leverage technology and long-standing industry relationships with pertinent city agencies, including the NYC Department of Buildings, enables its teams to operate clients’ buildings within budget, the company said.
