Mission
ROEM Corporation is committed to creating high-quality, high-value infill communities for everyone. Through integrated and innovative planning, design, development, construction management, and marketing we provide innovative solutions to complicated urban housing and commercial demands. As a model developer for the 21st century, we will continue to collaborate with municipalities, academics of higher learning and community residents to achieve our collective goals for the future character of our surrounding urban fabric and the families who dwell within it.
Vision
The cornerstone of ROEM's corporate philosophy is an unwavering commitment to bringing communities together through quality housing. It is the passion of our CEO, Robert Emami, to provide quality housing for both market rate and affordable demands. Our target markets are comprised of:
- Infill mid-density single-family or high-density multi-family market-rate housing
- Master-planned mixed-use, mixed-income, mixed-density development
- Affordable high-density family and senior housing
To meet the demands of a changing market and industry, ROEM progressively works to establish communities of mixed-income, mixed-use, and mixed-densities within an infill urban framework. ROEM's integrated design and development approach provides the flexibility to explore innovative responses to questions posed by an uncertain and ever-changing industry.
History
Robert Emami, President and CEO of ROEM Development Corporation, has been building new communities in Northern California for almost 30 years. He began his career in real estate as a broker managing a highly successful office of 30 agents in the late 70's and on through the early 80's. After several joint ventures, he discovered his passion was not just selling housing but building it. In 1988, he founded ROEM Development Corporation and began doing just that. As projects became larger it was no longer feasible for ROEM to self-perform the majority of the construction and work involved in building a quality home.
Thus in 1999 ROEM Builders Inc. was founded as the general contractor and construction management firm of ROEM Development Corporation. With the construction and development efforts separated, new divisions formed: a Development entity handling acquisitions, planning, design, financing, and overall project development; and a General Contracting side overseeing all project construction. This integrated structure has not only promoted even higher quality projects, but has also improved our project budgets, timelines, and overall management while giving ROEM ultimate control and responsibility of development from the beginning to end.
In early 2002, ROEM founded yet another subsidiary, MIRO Design Group as a planning and architecture firm. The addition of this in-house architectural firm not only strengthened the foundation of ROEM Corporation, but also entitled more control over the success of the projects ROEM develops as a cutting edge design firm.
