CB-Emmanuel offers the full scope and range of professional services needed to begin the process of revitalizing urban communities by offering the tools and resources needed to achieve tangible impact in social and economic development. The primary thrust of CB-Emmanuel business principles is entrenched in mobilizing and stimulating the growth and development of communities by securing, developing, and stabilizing properties in distressed areas for the betterment of the community and area residents. CB-Emmanuel believes the most significant sustainable mechanism to realize tangible impact in distressed neighborhoods and communities lies in securing large tracts of undeveloped property and building meaningful relationships with community partners (such as government agencies that aid residents with social service issues, local police precincts, youth organizations, etc.) to empower residents to maintain and build sites.

In particular, we are equipped to aid non-profits in securing governmental financing from the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR), and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to create low and moderate-income housing. We are uniquely positioned to offer a full array of services that include: project management, developing management and development budgets, securing contractors, and closing construction and permanent financing. Property Management Our management services include, but are not limited to, marketing and leasing; fiscal management and budgeting; building and property maintenance; code enforcement; tax and insurance administration; contract administration; rent collection enforcement; rent regulation compliance, and all other services required to ensure a successful real estate asset. Our property management portfolio consists of scattered rental housing located throughout the Bronx, Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens. We currently manage via our affiliate companies S. Richards and Shinda Management Corp. The entities oversee the property operations of privately-owned buildings, properties enrolled in HPD’s Article 7A program, and properties referred to court-appointed receivers that total approximately 6,000 units of housing. The majority of the properties in our portfolio are subject to DHCR’s rent regulations.
