WE STRIVE TO DEVELOP SITES THAT IMPROVE OUR SURROUNDINGS THROUGH THOUGHTFUL DESIGN AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL
Over the past 40+ years, Blank Aschkenasy Properties has built a record of successful investments and developments by applying our core principles to our real estate strategy. It’s our ability to think across the full spectrum of a project that sets us apart –prior to committing to any project, large or small, we embark on an intensive due diligence process that results in us always being several steps ahead of our competition. We consider the issues most likely to arise, the impact one decision will have on other parts of a project and, most importantly, work to resolve them before they become a stumbling block. And when the unexpected occurs, we take a rigorous, hands-on approach that we believe is generally successful because of our deep knowledge of our markets, vertically integrated operating platform and proximity to our real estate investments.
Tenants
We have been in the real estate management business in the Philadelphia area since 1972. We actively manage our own properties and take great pride in our relationships with our tenants. Fundamental to our success is the success of our tenants.
INVESTMENT THESIS
We invest our capital side by side with our partners, ensuring that our interests are always aligned. We prioritize value add opportunities where we have a specific expertise or local knowledge that provides us an advantage over our competitors.
COMMUNITY
We believe that re-development of new acquisitions (as well as management of our existing properties) is a collaborative effort with the community that the project serves, and accordingly, take our role in each community extremely seriously.
