JF 3981: Public-Private Partnerships, Urban Infill, and Development Strategy ft. Katie Kim

On this episode of Best Ever CRE, Joe Cornwell interviews Katie Kim, founder and CEO of The Developer’s Developer. Katie shares how she went from a childhood spent helping with family fix-and-flips to launching a full-service development firm that spans construction, property management, and development consulting. She walks listeners through how she collaborates with business owners and municipalities to structure build-to-suit and lease-to-own projects—often using economic incentives many small businesses overlook. Katie also dives deep into urban infill revitalization, the politics of local development, and how branding and storytelling can drive pre-leasing before a project is even built.
