WHAT I DO
ABOUT
–
I founded Amanat Properties to redevelop historic residential properties. I assemble locally-based, highly-skilled teams for each project, including innovative consultants who can maximize a historic building's potential, lenders who specialize in redevelopment opportunities and investors who believe that attractive financial returns and community building can go hand-in-hand. Amanat means "held in trust" in the Urdu language and that is how I see each of my projects.
GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS
I have focused on historic downtowns in New Jersey, near transport, universities and hospitals. These areas demonstrate favorable long-term supply and demand dynamics.
HUDSON COUNTY, NJ
MIDDLESEX COUNTY, NJ
I have worked on architecturally significant townhouses, apartment buildings and commercial buildings built before the 1950s, with deferred maintenance, subpar operations, poor renovations and under-built zoning envelopes.
