Multi-Family Construction in Tampa Bay

Florida Construction Specialists handles multi-family projects ranging from $1 million to over $50 million. This includes smaller townhome developments (10-30 units), mid-size apartment communities (50-150 units), and large-scale developments (150+ units). Our $10M+ bonding capacity allows us to take on substantial multi-family projects while our experienced team can efficiently deliver smaller developments.

Yes, we partner with multi-family developers throughout Tampa Bay. We understand developer pro forma requirements, the importance of schedule adherence for lease-up timing, and the need for cost control during construction. We provide detailed budgeting during pre-construction and maintain transparent communication on costs throughout the project.

We construct all multi-family building types including: wood-frame garden-style (Type V), podium construction (wood over concrete), mid-rise concrete and steel (Type I/II), and townhome construction. We select appropriate construction types based on project requirements, site conditions, and budget optimization.

Multi-family efficiency comes from treating repetitive units as production work. We establish quality standards on initial units, then systematically replicate across all units. Bulk material purchasing, crew specialization, and detailed scheduling allow us to maintain quality while achieving the cost efficiencies that multi-family pro formas require.

Yes, we have experience with affordable and workforce housing projects including those with LIHTC (Low-Income Housing Tax Credit) requirements. These projects often have specific construction standards, documentation requirements, and inspection protocols that differ from market-rate construction. We understand these requirements and ensure compliance throughout construction.

We construct all common amenity spaces including: clubhouses and leasing offices, fitness centers, pools and pool houses, business centers, package rooms, dog parks and pet spas, outdoor kitchens and gathering areas, parking structures, and landscaping and hardscaping. Amenity construction is coordinated with unit construction for efficient lease-up.

For projects that will be professionally managed, we coordinate with property management teams before construction completion. This includes ensuring management office space is prioritized, demonstrating building systems, providing documentation for maintenance, and facilitating smooth transitions to operations. For lease-up projects, we coordinate model unit completion with marketing timelines.

Multi-family timelines depend on project size and construction type. Townhome developments: 8-14 months. Garden-style apartments (50-100 units): 12-18 months. Mid-rise apartments (100-200 units): 14-22 months. Podium construction adds time for the concrete podium before wood framing. We provide detailed schedules during pre-construction.

Yes, we renovate existing multi-family properties including unit interiors, common areas, building exteriors, and systems upgrades. Renovation work can be performed on occupied properties with proper phasing and resident communication. We also handle condo common area reconstruction, including balcony repairs required under Florida's SB 4-D.

We provide multi-family construction services throughout Tampa Bay including Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Brandon, Lakeland, Sarasota, and Bradenton. Our experience spans urban infill developments, suburban garden communities, and coastal properties with enhanced wind and flood requirements.
