Stephen Ellis

Ellis Developments Group starts with a focus on community. With our diverse background, we deliver exceptional residential and mixed use projects in emerging markets across the Carolinas. Our team is built from a combination of strong local roots and an extensive international real estate experience allowing us to grow and adapt to the changes in our industry. As what frequently happens in rapidly growing markets, Ellis Developments experienced first hand the lack of response time and frequently increasing prices from other partners in the industry. To avoid having to wait and lose control of projects, Ellis has established our own in-house teams for surveying, engineering, planning, entitlement and construction management. This strategic decision offers various potential advantages: QUICKER TURNAROUNDS: By having dedicated teams on-site, we can potentially expedite essential tasks such as surveying, engineering, and planning. ENCHANCED COMMUNICATION: Having these departments in-house facilitates smoother and more efficient communication and collaboration among team members, leading to improved project coordination and reduced delays. QUALITY CONTROL: With an in-house team, we have greater control over maintaining consistent quality and adherence to our company's standards. COMPETITIVE EDGE: This move sets us apart from competitors relying on external providers and enables us to offer more responsive and efficient services to our clients. In summary, the decision to bring surveying, engineering, planning, entitlement, and construction management in-house is a strategic response to the challenges we've faced with external providers. When managed effectively, it can provide greater control, efficiency, and competitiveness in our projects.
