materials and techniques and methodologies that will eliminate the need for excessive repair and maintenance, or at least make it easy for us to maintain and repair on our own.” “It’s a project we intend to keep for the long run,” he continues. “We’re excited to be there and build a rapport with the residents, and we’re excited to learn from them. We don’t expect to be perfect, but we’re going to learn from the experiences of people living there and we’re going to figure out what we can do better and what lessons we can apply to future projects.” Once again, speaking of future projects, Faaris emphasizes that Parsi Development has a good amount of units in the pipeline, and they are excited to add even more. Their current objective is to grow to the point where they are delivering between 250 and 300 units per year, and they want some of those units to be affordable housing units. Once they reach that milestone, Faaris says they will evaluate growing even more – but he says their ultimate vision has always been clear, and that vision has never involved growing for the sake of growing. “At the end of the day, what we want to do is make a positive impact,” he says. “We want to better the communities we work in. We want to leave a mark on the world, and we want it to be a good mark. We want to give back as much as we receive. That’s what Parsi Development has always been about.” APRIL 2024
