The capital markets for long-term, fixed rate capital from investment grade bond funds.
The capital markets for low-interest, variable rate debt for creditworthy borrowers.
Conventional construction financing.
Structural techniques that, in most cases, provide bottom line savings.
Strategic Relationships
Over the past 30 years, Mr. DiPerna has cultivated a network of strategic partners that has allowed for a supremely efficient delivery of resources and services for his clients.
These relationships include state and city government officials, investors, bankers, developers, contractors, vendors, specialty service providers, attorneys, among others.
