Company Overview

We are a multi-faceted, rapidly growing Real Estate Development and General Contracting firm specializing in the development and construction of multifamily/mixed-use buildings, apartment complexes, short plats, spec homes, townhomes, custom homes, and large-scale remodels across Western Washington.

Position Overview

This is a full-time, on-site position located at our Arlington, WA office. The office is in a detached shop on a residential property, and access requires the use of stairs — candidates must be comfortable working in this environment.
