Available for consulting
Experienced help on your project.
Alongside building Fifthline, Todd Marcus takes on a limited number of advisory and consulting engagements for people working to get housing and real estate projects done in Kansas City.
He brings brokerage ownership, investment analysis, deal structuring, and property management experience across the region, plus a background in construction project management and commercial development. That lets him look at a project the way a lender, a builder, and an owner would, all at once.
Where Todd can help
Investment analysis & deal structuring
Underwriting, pro formas, and structuring a deal so the numbers, the partners, and the timeline all line up.
Capital stack & financing strategy
Sorting through debt, equity, incentives, and public programs to find a capital structure the project can actually carry.
Construction & development management
Planning, budgeting, and keeping a project moving from pre-development through construction.
Building-method evaluation
Comparing modular, panelized, and site-built delivery on cost, schedule, and quality for a specific site.
Land, market & site assessment
Kansas City market knowledge, site selection, and a clear read on what a parcel can support.
Urban infill feasibility
Testing whether a small-lot or scattered-site infill project works before you commit to it.
Who it’s for
- Developers and builders
- Property owners and investors
- Community organizations and nonprofits
- Public and civic partners
Engagements range from a single working session to ongoing advisory support, scoped to what the project needs.
