Multifamily Modular Construction is Gaining Ground

2019-08-30T17:47:05+00:00

Brooklyn Navy Yards is doing it. Marriott is doing it. Hilltop House is doing it.

And what exactly are they doing? Multifamily Modular Construction.

The 2017 trend for construction is ‘trim the fat’. While that’s always a focus for developers, as lenders get tighter and partnerships are starting to sweat the small stuff when it comes to return on investment and competition, developers and construction timeliness are finding out that modular construction is the new hot trend: shorter timelines, faster to market, higher returns, and an overall better investment.

Multifamily modular construction like rental apartments, mixed-use lifestyle centers, and upzoning municipalities are stronger than ever. (Feeling the strain from your lender? RAM, the financial arm of Aries Residence Suites and Aries Building Systems can finance your next multifamily development) As developers realize the wider margins available on using prefabricated modular construction, the myth and the rumors about modular being box-like, ugly, and plain have long been overturned.

Not only is multifamily hot in commercial development, but as unemployment drops and single family housing becomes less affordable in desirable and growing cities, luxury apartments are starting to appeal to buyers who gave up the search for buying. As things like temporary, sustainability, and economic factoring come into play, cities are scrambling to provide housing faster and cheaper. Boston held a design competition where the winner used modular building design. A common construction pain point is the lack of labor, which modular construction can help reduce labor costs but still maintain high quality results.

With a prediction of all sectors of construction increasing in 2017, you can expect to see more companies turn to modular building, especially in the housing industry, whether it is apartments, townhomes, or even temporary housing for workers who are aiding in the growth of specific economic areas. In fact, buy a whole ‘camp’ from Aries Building Systems!

Employee Spotlight – Farokh Ram

2019-02-08T21:57:56+00:00

For those that put stock in anagrams, it’s hard to not notice the irony of a man named Farokh Ram holding the position of RAM’s General Manager and “obstacle remover and lead everything-er” at Reliant Asset Management. His duties at RAM cover a wide array of responsibilities: Remarketing, lease initiation and maintenance, customer relations, 3rd party dealer relations, and the management of company-wide government contracts and the portfolios of 3rd party leased assets, business development and capture. In other words, he’s a very busy man.

 

Prior to coming onboard with RAM 4 years back, Farokh’s primary focus was real estate and property management. In fact, he still retains his real estate license and practices on the side. (How much do you want to bet that this is a man that needs very little sleep?!) Before his real estate career, Farokh worked with Resun Leasing. If you know your RAM history, Resun Leasing was one of the earlier iterations of the company – RAM/ABS/AMSI – also founded by Barry and Mike Roman. This was when his pilgrimage into the modular building industry began, in 1998 alongside the Roman brothers way-back-when. And before this? Take a wild guess. Never mind, you’ll never guess: he ran his own business for over a decade involving the import, distribution, wholesale, and retail of cut flowers and ornamental plants in the Washington DC area. One can quickly come to realize that Farokh is a person that fully commits to life, and all it has to offer.

 

When asked, “When you’re not at work, what would we find you doing?” Ram’s response was, “I love to travel, although I don’t do nearly enough of it. I like going out and walking, milling about in and around Washington DC, discover new neighborhoods, buildings, points of interest, stopping in at restaurants and bars and test driving, and generally canvassing areas. I can do this alone, or with my wife, or daughters, or dog, or a friend or two, or any combination thereof. On any given weekend, I can be expected to spend a fair number of hours shopping for and preparing meals at home. I also keep up with my real estate interests to the extent possible.”

 

And his perfect day? “A perfect day would be away from home, perhaps on vacation, in a new place where I have spent a few days already and gotten to know the neighborhood. Family and friends would be along with me and staying at a nice rented house. I would get up early and go to the market and buy all the ingredients for a nice supper meal. Come home and put away the purchases and meet up with all the rest of the company as they wake up and get going, have breakfast, and set about the plans for the day which would preferably include a trip to a very cool beach. Come back in the late afternoon, clean up and set about preparing the evening meal with the help of others in the company, put out a nice spread and enjoy a wonderful dinner with family and friends, in a relaxed and positive energy frame of mind.” (Is it me, or can you foresee Farokh opening a Bed & Breakfast someday?)

 

And now we know why Farokh Ram brings a certain “X factor” to the family of Aries companies. He understands independence, accountability, creativity, and balance. These are also the very things that he appreciates about working with Aries/RAM. “The latitude and trust afforded top down to the employees, and an entrepreneurial culture of work and expertise that is at first glance unassuming, yet brings out the best in everyone. A spirit of cooperation, receptivity, and responsiveness. An attitude that says “….yes, that is possible.” Yes, Farokh Ram. The future is bright for Reliant Asset Management and the Aries team. The world IS your oyster.

Modular Housing Could Be the Key to Combating Homelessness

2024-11-12T19:33:45+00:00

Sustainability is the goal of the future, and especially so when it comes to helping the homeless. Modular housing has many purposes and features, but modular buildings has one great benefit: modular units can be built ANYWHERE in a short amount of time.

Depending on where the need is, factory-built modular housing can be assembled and transported and be as temporary as a city would need it to be. Take the YMCA’s free to low-cost housing in London, which provides accommodations for 36 homeless in south London. It was so successful that the YMCA is developing another nearby to help bridge the gap in housing solutions in Cardiff. Also, while still in the prototype phase and coming up against a lot of commentary, ‘Homes for the Homeless’ is an architect’s Indiegogo campaign to offer modular shelters built off the side of buildings. In places where housing is at an extreme shortage and needs to be built on an extreme budget, architects are turning to modular to solve a housing crisis and offer a solution where even a ‘basic modular building’ is better than what most already have.

At one of Aries modular workforce camps, a light rain soaks into a wooden plank deck with rows of modular units serving as housing on either side.

In Hawaii, West Oahu, a non-profit was selected to help manage several modular properties that were built to house homeless families. Once in the prefabricated units, the non-profit will assign a case manager to assist the family with getting more assistance on finance management, work, health and more. Because many homeless are disabled, the modular units were compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.

With almost 7,000 homeless people in San Francisco and the cost of $30,000 for one bed in a shelter creating a fiscal problem for the government, many developers are jumping on the chance to pitch the city for modular housing options. Prefabricated modular housing is not only cheaper for the city, but it’s also safer. Most shelters have communal kitchens and don’t have private bathrooms, and housing coalitions are becoming more open to using modular construction to cut housing costs and production.

Community First in Austin went a step further and created an entire village for the homeless using RV’s and prefabricated modular homes similar to Aries Residence Suites Man Camps. Austin spends around $40,000 per homeless person, and will ultimately save $3 million per year for taxpayers. In Charlotte, a similar community saved the city $1.8 million a year.

Seattle is seriously weighing the use of modular construction to help solve a homeless problem as the flexibility of prefabricated modular units are not only attractive (a complaint many local homeowners have for valuation problems on their residences) but they are fully compliant with zoning, ADA, and are configurable and re-configurable to adjust to need and demand.

With homelessness on the rise…these architecture students are presenting a prototype called ‘Hope of the Valley’ and are currently negotiating for land to develop prefabricated housing from scavenged goods. In LA County there are roughly 5,000 homeless and only 900 beds, so time is of the essence. The student aims to create modular and mobile shelters that can be mass-produced and pre-certified by the city and placed on under-utilized land. They also want a system that can be broken down when development picks up.

Aries Buildings is committed to being at the forefront of modular innovation, and that means providing affordable and time-saving solutions for all different kinds of communities. If you’d like to know more about our philanthropic work as a company, check out our page dedicated to the subject.

Modular Building Is the New Trend in Hospitality

2025-02-08T00:55:24+00:00

Modular building is hitting the hospitality and tourism industry in a big way. In fact, if you’ve travelled anywhere in the United States in the past few years, chances are you’ve stayed in a hotel with modular elements! The trend is becoming so ubiquitous in the industry that it’s often nearly impossible to discern if a hotel or event spaces was built with traditional building techniques or with modular building techniques. Investors and developers keen to cash in on the steep ROI hotels afford are helping the revolutionary building system take off.

If you want big name examples, look no further than the Doubletree in Tallahassee, Florida. The hotel, which is owned by Hilton, used prefabricated modular elements to add valuable amenities and attract guests with minimal renovation time (always a concern in the industry).

Elsewhere, big names in the hotel world are looking to modular building to help build out franchise locations and corporate housing, both for the speed to market and the ease at which these units can be outfitted with consistent branding. Developers know that getting “heads on beds” as quickly as possible translates to higher profits, and modular delivers completed units in up to half the time.

By utilizing cutting edge building techniques such as indoor construction, segmented installation, and enhanced safety protocols, modular building reduces waste and materials loss while maximizing efficiency to bring hospitality companies a superior product in record time. With modular, Canyon Lodge and Cabins in Xanterra Park was able to reduce their time to occupancy to just six months!

Are you a project coordinator or project manager for a hospitality group? Aries wants to work with you! Our custom-designed modular buildings are a great fit for pop-up hotels and events! Build it better and build it faster with Aries by your side. Call today: (888) 995-0284.

From Dream to Reality in No Time Flat: Modular Makes it Possible

2024-05-02T09:10:09+00:00

Buildings in construction with a beautiful sunset in the background

As an entrepreneur, you know that every moment you spend preparing to do business would be better served actually doing business. No matter the industry in which you operate – whether it be retail, administrative, medical, or accommodations – reducing the time to occupancy is critical for the overall well-being of your business. In this pursuit, utilizing Aries Building’s construction of new modular buildings – or customizing our used modular inventory – is the perfect solution.

Why trust us? Aries constructs modular buildings in a climate controlled environment, safe from external forces that could set back the production of a traditionally constructed building – costing your business time and expense. Another advantage to modular building is often overlooked: the site preparation and unit construction are performed simultaneously. This can minimize your projected project cost by 30%, 40% – even 50% – not to mention you’ll be open for business in half the time.

If the idea of modular buildings conjures up imagery of dingy school portables, worry not; today’s modular buildings are virtually indiscernible from those built with traditional methods. When combined with Aries’ top of the line quality control and indoor construction technique, your modular unit will be sturdier and more reliable than its traditionally built counterpart. To reiterate, your modular unit can be every bit as aesthetically pleasing as traditional buildings at a fraction of the cost. We can create new buildings or retool one of our pre-owned units to accurately represent your business.

When a quick return on investment (ROI) is the name of the game, partnering with a modular building manufacturer like Aries Building Systems can help you succeed faster than you thought possible.

Aries’ turnkey solutions are perfect for turning your business’ dreams into a reality. From start to finish, Aries makes it happen.
