Construction, real estate, hospitality and restaurants

From the subprime mortgage crisis to the ongoing collapse of homebuilding, the construction and real estate industry has been badly shaken, eroding builder and lender confidence. The entire sector continues to be in flux, although projects are beginning to move again, albeit with more realistic expectations. Access to capital, tightened lending standards, and a still-sluggish economy continue to challenge even the most dynamic of firms.

At Grant Thornton, we understand the nuts and bolts of the construction, real estate and hospitality businesses. We provide accounting, tax and business advisory services to help you safeguard your assets and meet your business objectives.

Our professionals' extensive real estate valuation experience, coupled with their involvement in some of the largest corporate restructurings in the country, gives them the breadth and depth of experience to help bring about the best possible results for clients. We offer a comprehensive suite of services, including accounting and tax, forensic accounting, restructuring, valuation, investment banking, and litigation support. Whether your firm is a property owner, a developer, a property management firm, or REIT, turn to us for the experience you need to grow your business.
