the s.hekemian group

The S.Hekemian Group (SHG) develops high-quality, highly-finished real estate for long-term ownership. With over 90 years as one of the country’s most stable property owners and developers, our significant and highly selective portfolio includes luxury residential, office, mixed use, and retail/lifestyle properties located in the strongest demographic areas of New Jersey, the Northeast United States, and California. At SHG, we look at each development opportunity as a puzzle, which can be transformed into an innovative project through thoughtful problem solving, analysis, and design. Our core belief is that each piece of property requires its own unique development plan – particularly in the case of redevelopment – and that each stage of the development process requires its own well-conceived resolution strategy. SHG’s key operating principle is our hands-on approach, and it is this owner involvement that yields a higher quality product built to stand the test of time. When developing property that had a prior use, there are always unexpected issues in both the approval, construction, and marketing phases of a project. Being around our job sites helps us apply informed solutions when these complicated situations arise. In addition, we are unique in that we possess the in-house construction expertise to scope, bid, and hold construction sub-contracts, allowing us greater construction flexibility, more efficient scheduling, and lower cost construction.
