Vision:
“Right now, we see an industry that has boundless opportunity. You’re open to create absolutely anything. You can find a community, find out what the need of that community is, and create it. There’s more competition now, compared to before, and there’s more pressure on the current generation to create something more and more desirable. Developers have to become more efficient and more sophisticated with how we plan, create, and execute. We definitely have more accessible information than developers in the past. With social media, we know more about what buyers like, what kinds of strategies work, and even designs that are more attractive to today’s buyers.”
Interesting Facts:
Safa is recently married, plays soccer and basketball, and is actually very talented at wood working!
Pouyan just got engaged. Whenever he and his fiancee have the time, they travel to the west coast to hike and enjoy many other outdoor activities.
