Founder bio — Stephen Pereff

Stephen Pereff, age 53, has been in commercial construction since his high school years. His father was an electrical contractor who provided work for a prominent historic construction and development company based in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area — one of the largest condominium and multifamily builders of the early 1980s, having constructed over 7,000 multifamily units and developed more than 1,000 acres. Stephen walked those development sites from age five, meeting every player in the industry from the start.

Stephen learned the development side of the business from Bill Anderson, who mentored the creator of the "Mansions Apartments" brand and who taught Stephen how to negotiate with cities and structure 40-year, fixed-rate, non-recourse apartment financing using HUD programs that allow up to 98% LTV — GNMA-backed securities with AAA credit-enhancement loan structures. This is how Stephen learned to both build and develop real estate at the level of government requirements and institutional capital markets.

Stephen personally walks every Pereff project site every week — checking quality and looking for ways to expedite construction schedules. He personally takes every Project Rescue call. He has 25+ years of real estate development experience and deep relationships with healthcare bank underwriters across North Texas. His experience and knowledge in the design-build process consistently comforts clients who are unfamiliar with how it works. His ambition: to build Pereff into the largest dental, medical, and veterinary contractor and real estate developer in North Texas.
