Gatsby Development Referral Program

This referral program rewards clients who introduce investors or owners seeking multi-family development services. When a referred client moves forward with Gatsby’s development services to develop and own a multi-family property, you earn a referral commission.
  • Introduce clients to Gatsby’s full-service, in-house development team
  • Earn referral commissions for qualified development introductions
  • Submit referrals easily through your Gatsby Investment account

Refer Investors or Owners Seeking Development Services

This program is designed for real estate professionals and industry partners who have trusted, one-on-one relationships with landowners, property owners, or investors interested in developing multi-family properties from the ground up.

By making a professional introduction, you connect your client with Gatsby’s built-for-you development services and allow them to pursue development-to-ownership opportunities while you earn a referral commission.

How Gatsby’s Built-for-You Development Model Works

Gatsby’s built-for-you model is designed to help clients achieve development-to-ownership outcomes in a cost-effective way. From the outset, Gatsby treats each project as a long-term investment, carefully evaluating market fundamentals, location, and costs to ensure the deal makes sense beyond simply building the property.

Gatsby manages the entire development lifecycle, from feasibility and planning through construction and delivery, while the client retains full ownership of the completed asset. Once construction is complete, Gatsby delivers a newly built, income-producing property, allowing the client to operate and benefit from long-term cash flow and built-in equity.

Key benefits for your client include:

  • End-to-end development management without day-to-day involvement
  • Ground-up construction focused on maximizing property value
  • Shorter development timelines with efficient use of capital
  • Clear online visibility and tracking from planning through delivery
  • Full ownership of the completed multi-family property
  • A development approach designed to support long-term income and appreciation

How Gatsby Helps Stretch Investment Capital

Through experience and long-standing industry relationships, Gatsby helps clients maximize capital efficiency at every stage of development:

  • Market feasibility analysis to identify strong submarkets and optimal unit mixes
  • Off-market property sourcing to lower acquisition costs
  • Pre-construction cost savings through established relationships with architects, engineers, and vendors
  • Construction cost control through volume pricing and hands-on project management
  • Access to favorable construction loan terms through established lender relationships

Commission Structure

You earn a referral commission when your referred client proceeds with a Gatsby built-for-you development project.

Commission Details:

  • 1% referral commission based on construction value
  • Commission capped at $25,000 per project
  • Referral commissions are paid once the development agreement is signed and the project moves forward.
