Reviews

  • Worked with Larry for several years, when he was in the Owner's Rep role for a large real estate development client. Issues arose during negotiation of the contract and during the project, and Larry handled all with great skill and diplomacy. Larry is extremely knowledgeable about construction management and operations, construction contracts, etc. He works extremely well under pressure and to meet tight deadlines. Definitely a team player!

  • I worked with Larry for 4 years on an incredibly challenging project in Manhattan, and have been impressed at his breadth of knowledge of construction, his wide network of consultants and colleagues and his ability to bring those two attributes together to get things done in a city where everything is difficult! He is on top of everything, organized and consistently coming up with solutions to help expedite and economize the construction process. For large, complex projects I cannot think of better person to put in charge than Larry. I hope to do many more projects with him in the coming years of my practice.

The term "Owner's Representative" typically refers to a role or position within a construction or real estate development project. The owner's representative acts on behalf of the property owner,  developer, lessee or lessor, to oversee and manage most aspects of the project. Here are some key responsibilities and characteristics associated with a property owner’s / developer's / lessee’s or lessor’s Owner's Representative:

  • The Owner's Representative is responsible for overseeing the entire development project. This includes project concept & design, budget & financing, reviewing the scope of work, oversight of the construction, quality control during construction, ensuring that work is being carried out according to plans and specifications, and addressing any issues that may arise.

  • They serve as a liaison between the property owner or developer and the various parties involved in the project, such as architects, contractors, and subcontractors. Effective communication is crucial to ensure that everyone is on the same page.

  • The Owner's Representative is often involved in the financing phase as well as budget planning and management. They can help acquire project financing with the strategic partners and contacts we have cultivated over the years. The Owner's Representative keeps the project within budget constraints and may be responsible for approving or negotiating contracts with vendors.

  • Ensuring that the work meets quality standards and complies with building codes and regulations is a key aspect of the role. This involves regular inspections and coordination with inspectors.

  • Identifying and mitigating potential risks is another important responsibility. The Owner’s Representative will work with you and your team to acquire the proper insurance coverage to ensure you and your project are protected. This includes addressing issues that may arise during construction, managing change orders, and resolving disputes.

  • Keeping the project on schedule is critical. The Owner's Representative works with the project team to establish timelines and milestones and ensures that they are met.

  • The Representative may have the authority to make certain decisions on behalf of the owner, streamlining the decision-making process and keeping the project moving forward.

  • Being able to identify and solve problems quickly is a valuable skill for an Owner's Representative. This may involve resolving conflicts, addressing unexpected challenges, and adapting to changes in the project scope.

Overall, the Owner's Representative plays a crucial role in ensuring that your new single family home build, single family home addition / renovation, commercial, or multifamily development project is executed smoothly, meeting the owner's objectives in terms of quality, budget, and timeline.

  • Larry is simply one of the best Owners Representative Project Managers that I’ve had the pleasure working with here in New York City. On the project that we’ve been working on the past several years, Larry has possessed an incredible acumen to get things done within a complex framework from the management of the Ownership, Investment, Design and Marketing goals of the project down to the fine details and challenges of making the building a reality on site. His organizational skills, intensity, professional integrity and ability to quickly come to resolution on an array of topics has been critical to the success of his projects. These skills have been honed from many years of Project Management and Construction experience in New York City, and his recommendations and insight from this real-world expertise is an incredible asset, especially for those who get the opportunity to work with him.

    Wayne Norbeck, DXA Studio

  • I know Larry for close to 30 years. I have worked along side him as a contractor, he has acted as a contractor for me on projects I designed and we have collaborated on a project as a developer. In later years I have watched him take on projects with other contractors and developers that I am close to. In all these years he has excelled in each project and roll that he is accepted. He has been a driving force and invaluable asset in every case. He has extensive knowledge and experience in most disciplines related to construction and real estate development. I would recommend him highly to the anyone looking for a seasoned professional capable of leading a challenging or troubled project. He is the kind of individual that will “take the bull by the horns” and keep the project on track regardless of its obstacles. Larry is someone I would trust with one of my projects and I think that says it all.
