Since 2000, Niklas Group has been active in the building and development of sleek, modern, urban oriented homes. Niklas Group strives to exceed client expectations by focusing on quality, style, location, and unique features in each and every one of their developments.

Imagine yourself being one of the top real estate developers in the country like those of the Niklas Group. Everybody wants to be a developer. The thought of flying in your private airplane to check out a plot of land or popping corks from Champagne bottles at your latest grand opening, appeals to just about everyone. So if you are after an extravagant lifestyle then maybe being a real estate developer is for you.

The first step that you have to take to become a real estate developer is to go to university or college and get a degree in architecture or architectural technology. An engineering degree can be helpful, but it does not provide as broad an understanding of the construction industry. After graduation an aspiring real estate developer should gain enough experience to become a developer. Working in an architectural firm or perhaps the planning department of a municipality in order to learn the ins and outs of the approval process that is an integral part of the real estate development game is a good way to familiarize you with the business.

Keep in mind that becoming a real estate developer is not an easy business. There is a battle that begins the day you purchase your first piece of land. Therefore, before you step into the ring, you need to know that you will have enemies. There will be opposition from every facet of your project and you will have to battle them alone. This business requires perseverance, hard work, long hours, and seven workday weeks. You will spend many hours negotiating with city officials, dealing with bad weather and changing soil conditions. You also have to face the people who work for you and the unending complaints about their jobs. Being a real estate developer is not the way to easy cash. In order to establish a successful real estate developing firm like the Niklas Group one must have the knowledge, the resources and the ability to handle situations well. Real estate development is not cheap and cost over-runs, especially as they relate to delays in the approval and construction processes can be fatal.

Real estate development is a risky business, there are a lot even tons of things that you have to handle well but there is a tremendous satisfaction in seeing a building rise from the ground and come together as a finished product. When this time comes not only will you be filled with satisfaction but your pockets can be full of well earned money as well.
