management
We support private homeowners, architects, designers, contractors, and developers with a structured approach to planning, budgeting, procurement, and construction oversight. Our model blends steady onshore leadership with industry-leading AI and a highly skilled in-house global operations team, enabling accurate budgets, consistent documentation, and organized decision-making, all without the overhead of typical owner’s rep firms.
the problems we solve
Financial Chaos
No one owns project finances. Murky projected costs. Zero cash flow projections. Messy accounting. You keep spending without the end in sight.
Documentation You Can’t trust
Bids don’t compare. Contracts have gaps. Payment applications are unclear. Everyone is pressing you for a decision, but you don’t have the information you need.
Failed Coordination
You hire the best architect, designer, and contractor, but they aren’t aligned. Questions multiply. Timelines slip. The project consumes your life while the project drags.
The De Burgh Difference
We bring decades of experience managing the most complex projects in the world, from New York City to Nepal. Trusted by NYC’s leading real estate families, we are chosen to oversee their private projects where judgment, discretion, and control matter.
Delivering white-glove service at competitive cost, we combine hands-on leadership with a best-in-class network of design and construction professionals— all with the singular focus of protecting our clients’ interests.
-
You're evaluating a property or planning a development, but early estimates are guesses. Zoning is unclear. Pro formas are optimistic. You need accurate information before committing capital.
-
You're managing a significant investment, but you're not a construction expert. Your architect and contractor are capable, but their incentives don't perfectly align with yours. Information is fragmented. Decisions pile up. The project starts to control you.
-
Design decisions are made without understanding their cost implications. By the time you receive pricing, the design is locked in and the budget is blown. Changes feel impossible.
-
Contractor bids arrive in different formats. Exclusions are buried. Scope differences aren't obvious. You're comparing proposals that can't actually be compared, and you're expected to make an informed decision.
-
Construction is underway, but issues are emerging. Quality concerns. Schedule slippage. Coordination breakdowns. No one is looking at the whole picture, and small problems are becoming expensive ones.
-
Architects and designers excel at design. Contractors excel at building. But estimating, bid analysis, budget tracking, and accounting review fall outside core expertise—and hiring dedicated staff is expensive and inefficient.
