Real Estate Entitlement Due Diligence Research, Expediting/Processing, and Project Management of Land Use & Planning Discretionary Approvals & Construction Permits for Medical, Biotech, Commercial, Industrial, Residential Custom/Tract/Multifamily, Churches, and Private Schools though out Southern California
Terry Strom has led entitlement efforts on several prior and ongoing projects for Universal Health Services in Southern California. For a $428M hospital project, he managed the entire effort that included approvals from two different cities, multiple utilities, county, state, federal agencies, cell tower vendors, and manipulation of dedicated easements. Terry’s skillsets include detailed and organized management of communications with agency representatives, and he is able to hold them accountable to all agreements. Where agency requirements conflicted or representatives were in disagreement, he facilitated solutions that lead to successful outcomes and the projects moving forward as intended. Terry’s decades of experience in dealing with project entitlements, as well as his leadership, professionalism, and teambuilding expertise, all results in great outcomes. Terry is and will continue to be my go-to professional for my project entitlement need
Terry is one of the most impressive project managers I have worked with in my 36 years of construction experience. Permitting is a critical part of any construction project schedule. He truly manages the permitting process and gets results.
Have had the privilege of working with Terry Strom for several years. Cannot imagine going into battle without my entitlement sword and shield of Terry!
