Consulting & Project Management

Hammersmith® Management helps guide developers through the community planning & development process with decades of experience. Hammersmith® is your partner in setting a solid foundation for your new community.

Having reviewed legal documents for communities ranging in size from 84 units to 3500 units, we are well versed with a wide range of documentation—including legal documents for business parks, condominiums, apartment conversions, single family, build-to-suit and master planned communities. We understand what constitutes “effective and enforceable” legal agreements and how to avoid provisions that may create problems during the development of the community.
We provide written recommendations for changes or modifications, and will also share sample documents for consideration.

Hammersmith® is an ideal partner in the site plan review process. Our experience has taught us that often times small changes to a site plan can prevent problems associated with maintenance, parking, utilities and other factors. An early site plan review also provides an opportunity to ensure that the physical components of the community are consistent with the legal documents of the association.

Hammersmith® is a key partner in the financial operation of the associations we manage. Our deep understanding of the fiscal aspects of common interest developments uniquely positions us to assist in developing a budget for your community that is realistic and feasible. More importantly, we understand the necessary balance between marketable assessment fees and effective financial planning. We are also well versed in the implementation and fiscal management of variable assessments, phased budgets, cost centers, maintenance agreements, and developer billing.

Creating a successful sales and marketing culture begins during the early stages of community development. Hammersmith® can provide education to your agents regarding the benefits associated with common interest developments, architectural control procedures and early disclosure information. We will also provide materials for new buyers that outline the advantages and benefits of living within a planned community.

Protection and preservation of the architectural standards and aesthetics of your development is absolutely essential. New homebuyers are eager to begin improvements to their new home and often unaware of the community’s design approval process. By developing clear and comprehensive design guidelines prior to the first sale, Hammersmith® helps facilitate and manage the approval process—avoiding miscommunication or unmet expectations. Our guidelines will incorporate provisions established in the legal documents of the association and outline long-term maintenance responsibilities of the owners.

We will also prepare and monitor a detailed tracking program to verify that new homebuyers are adhering to the established guidelines.

During the development and implementation of your community, a calendar of key events will need to be created. These include scheduling the first members meeting, executing annual contracts and insurance policies and reporting certain information to the membership. Hammersmith® will assist you in creating a comprehensive calendar that includes every required element.

Proper annexation requires supplemental declaration to documents, completion of final subdivision reports and BRE budgets as well as other necessary steps. Hammersmith® is well versed in the annexation process and, together with your legal counsel, will assure that additional phases are properly assimilated into the community.

Our accounting and escrow departments have extensive knowledge of phased developments. We will verify that with the close of an escrow in the next phase, all proper adjustments to financial considerations are made. Additionally, our manager will obtain insurance coverage options for your approval and implement any other necessary adjustments with the annexation of additional homes.

An essential key in the long-term success of a common interest development is the implementation of solid accounting and financial planning. Due to our experience with new developments, we are experienced with creating delinquency policies, vendor qualification processes, work order systems and general owner information. We are also familiar with federal and state income tax requirements and will work directly with the association’s accountant to verify that all appropriate steps have been implemented.
