About Iskagna
We’re Here Because the ‘Old Way’ Wasn’t Working.
Owners need people who can ask tough questions, make sound decisions, and be willing to fight for their best interest.
And that’s what we do best.
So, we put together a team of people who shared that same mindset. Together, we pursue projects that we find interesting. We approach development consciously, mindful of the impact it has on our community and the places we call home. We’re dedicated to the work, always learning, and unafraid to push back on the way things have always been done.
With a strong network of relationships and expertise in real estate, development, and construction, Iskagna knows exactly what it takes to keep projects moving and put clients in a position to generate a positive return.
We look at the old way of doing things, that “punch-in punch-out mentality,” as being broken.
Our process isn’t the same as other firms. And we may not be the right fit for everyone. That’s okay. Those who understand what we bring to the table will gain a clear path forward.
