“We have a few lots in an upcoming subdivision that we’re looking to break into the whole new building market,”
“We start by educating our clients on their options, making sure that the design, style, and budgets are all a perfect fit.” and a warm, comfortable relationship, to make this a fun and welcoming experience from start to finish you know we are there for you,” said Murphy. Establishing close-knit relationships with each client is part of their business DNA. The customer is always the priority for Skyline Construction Group and their advice is always genuine and based on the needs and wants of the clients. They want to be upfront and honest with the customers. Giving the proper advice and infor- mation even if that means the customer ends up using that information to DIY that project on their own or they go elsewhere, the team at Skyline Construction Group can rest assured that their education benefited the customer and their personal needs. During our conversation with Murphy, he high- lighted an ongoing issue that the province is struggling with and one that he personally wants to be part of solving and that is the affordable housing crisis. Halifax is known for being diverse
and accepting, however, this crisis is dividing and bringing families into struggles like they would’ve never imagined. Murphy says families are transforming their family homes into rental properties to accumu- late rental income in hopes to get ahead. Older single family homes are being converted to two and three units, sometimes being home to up to 10 people. With Halifax’s big city attracting new residents from all over Canada and/or the world, there is a lack of housing, and the demand is raising prices above reasonable prices. Murphy touched on the subject of his new multi- unit builds projects as a possible solution for the housing crisis that we are having. Yes, this is an opportunity to extend their business, but also an opportunity to hopefully alleviate the housing crisis that we are in. These projects will be two eight-unit buildings owned by someone who intends to invest not only into real estate but the rental side of things as well. Although these are early stages, we are confident the job will be executed beautifully through Skyline Constructions compassion and dedication for pride within their work. We also got a sneak peak into the new growth within the company; “We have a few lots in an upcoming subdivision that we’re looking to break into the whole new building market,” said Murphy. He went on to tell us to stay tuned to their socials and their website for updates and news regarding their future project(s).
Growth and expansion Murphy’s businesses has not been easy as they face the same challenges today as everybody else in the industry is cur- rently facing. That being limited product supply issues and pricing increases caused by demand for products and shortage of supply. Then with growth comes the need for additional technical staff and labour. “We are lucky that we’ve built a great team with both our companies. And that we have built a solid client database,” said Murphy. Capitalizing on a positive project experience with existing customers and the ability to hire and retain a skilled, passionate and motivated team is an accomplishment within itself in today’s job marketing. “We transform the construction experience, by creating an environment that fosters collaboration, transparency, and account- ability, to ensure we deliver exactly what the client dreamed of,” says Murphy.
