Build to sell or rent
For investors from Mexico and the Valley. One company takes your project from the first drawing to the sale or the rental, in English or Spanish.
Sisu takes your project from the design and the permits to the finished building, then helps you sell it or rent it. The Three Sisters are townhomes Sisu designed and built in McAllen, on land Sisu developed.

Townhomes for one investor
A project Sisu runs today, told without the client's name or the place.
Sisu is the project manager for an investor who is building eight townhomes. We work with the investor on everything the project needs before the first pour, the construction loan included, and the project is in preparation.
Daniel Estrada will build it as general contractor, the same way Sisu built the townhomes in the photo.

Questions
What does it cost to build?
Our prices begin at $115 per square foot. Every project is different. You get a written price for your project, line by line, before you sign.
How long does it take?
For one home, design and permits take 1 to 2 months and construction takes 6 to 10 months, depending on its size. A project with several units has its own schedule. Daniel goes over it with you on a call.
Can you help me with a loan?
Yes. We help you get the financing for the project and prepare what the loan asks for. Daniel explains the options on a call.
I have never done business in Texas. Where do I start?
With a call. We walk you through what you need here, such as a bank account and an accountant. Legal and tax advice comes from your own attorney and accountant.
Do you tell me what the project will earn?
We give you the cost in writing and walk you through the schedule. With those two, you and your advisers run your numbers.
Where do you build?
In McAllen, Edinburg, Mission, Pharr, Weslaco, Harlingen and Brownsville.
I do not have land yet. Can I still call?
Yes. Our lot check is free: send us the lot you are looking at and we tell you what it takes to build on it. At Pecan Heights we also sell townhomes with the lot.
