Construction.Consulting.Development.

Our development services ensure that your project possesses the AHC hallmarks of high quality and value. Five decades of experience, combined with strong industry partners and relationships, allow us to seamlessly take real estate development projects from conception to completion.

We scrutinize the market to ascertain feasibility for each project, looking at the area's economic, employment, and demographic statistics. We then identify the right programs to meet project objectives, and collaborate with municipal, government, and non-profit organizations to streamline the development process. Our team works diligently to exceed timeline and budget expectations, maximizing every dollar our clients spend.

From the planning stage through completion, our skilled team continually has its eye on the client's objectives and bottom line. Creating and monitoring schedules, managing budgets, tracking construction costs, attention to detail, meeting and exceeding building industry standards: our commitment to excellence underpins it all.

An area leader in energy efficient construction, our company has built hundreds of ENERGY STAR homes. We are ENERGY STAR certified Builders and Raters, which means each AHC construction project is designed and built to standards well above most other buildings on the market using comprehensive air sealing, properly installed insulation, and high performance windows.

As a Rater, or consultant, we use a whole house approach to test the energy efficiency of the building, which includes a blower-door test to measure air leakage and identify opportunities to seal it.

We are also a Net Zero builder. Net Zero buildings, known as Zero Energy Homes, produce as much energy as they consume, or more. These buildings are built very airtight, highly insulated, and utilize high-efficiency appliances, heating, and lighting. They use solar photovoltaic (PV) collectors, or other renewable sources, to produce sufficient electricity to meet the minimal remaining energy needs.

Real estate development is complex and costly. The regulations and restrictions can seem overwhelming. Relying upon our extensive knowledge of industry and municipal rules and our relationships with key decision makers can help streamline your project's costs and timeline.

A building is only as good as its foundation. The same applies to your construction capabilities. Our attention to detail, commitment to sound financial reporting, and dedication to maximizing every dollar spent provides you with cost-effective solutions you can count on, from concept to close-out.
