Today's
complex and rapidly changing society operates
at a pace that affects the nation's industrial
base, specific industries, and the locations
where economic growth or decline will occur. |
| Development
patterns vary widely from region to region,
city to city, and even block to block within
individual cities. While some regional patterns
of high growth may emerge as self-evident, as
they did in the 80's in the Sunbelt, currently
most patterns elude easy prediction. |
|
| TMG
concentrates its land acquisition and development
efforts in those regions where jobs, housing
and employment are most predictable and are
projected to be the strongest. |
| These
growth factors precede new development; and with
it, the absorption of land for commercial, apartment,
retail, business office park, and competitively
priced affordable residential subdivisions. |
TMG
prepares Regional Study
Area Maps for every city where intensive
research will take place. Examples of
some of the cities where TMG has prepared Regional
Study Area Maps appear on this page. Each
Regional Study Area Map depicts the specific
Study Areas within that city that TMG feels
requires further investigation (and there may
be anywhere from 4 to 14 separate study areas.
As each Study area is defined and a separate
Study Area Map is then prepared for that Study Area
(see next page RESEARCH:
An INDISPENSABLE TOOL) |
| If
research indicates a Study Area has the ingredients
for strong, sustained, and predictable growth,
the key parcels of land in that Study Area are
investigated in much greater depth. |
| Each
Study Area is selected according to its development
potential and marketability, as a result
of the impact of some of the following factors:
- Transportation
- Growth Corridors
- Planned Residential
Development
- Availability of all
major utilities
- Government projects
- New Hospitals
- New Churches
- New Schools
- Major High Density
Residential
- Retail
- Commercial, Industrial
and Business Office
- Park Development

In addition, TMG looks for
a number of regional indicators to predict future
development potential, including: local GNP,
labor, employment data, industrial output, population
trends, P/E ratios, and so forth. |
