CMC Enjoying NAA 2013 in Sunny San Diego!

Last week five Corcoran employees embarked across the country to National Apartment Association’s annual education conference at one of our nation’s most beautiful vacation destinations, San Diego. Just like everyday throughout the calendar year, the weather was a picturesque 80 degrees and sunny without even a bit of humidity in the air. The only word fitting enough to describe San Diego is “perfect”.

                Along with the fabulous attractions and atmosphere San Diego presented us, we were fortunate enough to interact with thousands of industry professionals working to educate us on a variety of subjects within the multifamily property management industry. Through motivational speeches, class workshops, seminars, and other meet-and-greet events we flexed our brain muscles and learned new traits, facts, and upcoming trends about the apartment industry. One of the greatest benefits in attending an NAA conference is interacting and hearing stories from our counterparts within the industry. Hearing the stories of leasing consultants and managers from all different regional demographics throughout the country gives us insight and guidance in how to handle any situation of any different magnitude.

                I think we can speak for thousands who attended the conference that the biggest thrill was hearing the inspirational words of Sir Richard Branson. One of the greatest and most respected business leaders and innovators over the last half-century, Sir Richard shared his intellect on the crowd and educated us on the importance of strong relationships between employers and their employees. Communicating and rewarding your employees as an employer are of the utmost importance when trying to run a successful business. There is no doubt everyone who left the conference will have the words of Sir Richard echoing in their daily operations.

                We want to thank NAA and their sponsors for putting on what was an absolutely fabulous three day event in beautiful San Diego. We are already looking forward to next year when we hit the mile high city of Denver!

Groundbreaking at Corcoran: SouthField set for Groundbreaking Ceremony on Phase II of The Commons

Roughly fifteen months ago the first residents of The Commons at SouthField Highlands arrived with fully-packed moving trucks. This monumental day marked the start of a new era at SouthField, the South Shore’s newest live-and-play community.

Fast forward to today…

When we first broke ground on The Commons, we set out with the goal of building a true “community”, a place where residents will feel at home not just within the walls of their own individual home, but throughout the community amenities, grounds, and common areas. Throughout our first year we have received tremendous feedback from our residents who drop by the office just to say hello after a long day at the office. Resident parties and gatherings offer convenient and tasteful opportunities for residents to meet-and-greet with one another and form bonds. Summer of 2013 will continue to bring excitement to the community of SouthField and its residents. With that added excitement, Corcoran Management is proud to announce we are breaking ground on the upcoming Phase II of The Commons at SouthField Highlands!

72 brand-new, thoughtfully-designed eco-friendly luxury apartments will be constructed on the site of the former South Weymouth Naval Air Station. The new apartments will feature wood floors, granite countertops, a roof deck, Wi-Fi café, and outdoor patio area. Recently, the apartments of phase I of The Commons received the honor of being named LEED Silver Certified by the United States Green Building Council. Corcoran is driven to provide the finest in luxury apartment living while also preserving and protecting environmental surroundings with eco-friendly paints, solvents, appliances and construction materials.  

An exact date has not been announced for the ceremony, but it is expected to take place within the next month. Many local newspapers including the Boston Globe, Patriot Ledger, Weymouth Patch, Hingham Patch, and Braintree Patch have all done features on the groundbreaking at The Commons.

We look forward to providing you with the latest news and updates on the upcoming ceremony, as well as the rest of all the excitement happening this summer at SouthField!
