Steve Brown

CEO, Balke Brown

We engaged Cobalt to help us close out a large and complex mixed-use project in downtown Clayton.  They were able to bring the construction and design teams together so that we crossed the finish line successfully.  During this completion process, I was able to sleep at night knowing that Cobalt had our interest at heart.   Cobalt has continued to work with us on tenant finish buildout and has become a trusted advisor to our firm."
