Oakland’s multifamily stock is unusually varied. A building near Lake Merritt might be a century old while a community a few miles out went up last decade, and the approach differs entirely. Older buildings hide things. Newer ones hide different things. Either way, scope written before walking the property is a guess, and guesses turn into change orders. We assess thoroughly first. That means the number we give accounts for what is actually there, and the schedule we commit to is one we can genuinely hold. Add zero punch list at handover and the project ends where it was supposed to, on the date it was supposed to, with no loose ends trailing behind.
