What Dugally Oberfeld does

Dugally Oberfeld, Inc. is a privately held custom luxury residential construction firm headquartered at 484 S. San Vicente Blvd in Los Angeles, California, serving ultra high net worth individuals seeking bespoke residences in Southern California. Founded in 1999 by principals Matthew Dugally and Mauricio Oberfeld—both University of Southern California alumni in Urban Planning and Architecture respectively—the firm has completed over 150 projects over approximately 25 years, spanning styles from traditional villas to sleek modern estates. Operations are run from the Los Angeles headquarters and a regional office in Corona Del Mar (Orange County), with a staff of 11–50 employees; Eddie Reay serves as Partner and COO alongside the two founders.

The firm's service offering is organized around three integrated modules: Preconstruction Services (cost estimation, design and constructibility review, Building Information Modeling, project logistics, and construction support); Construction Management (execution with dedicated project executives, innovative sustainability practices, and a curated global subcontractor network); and Estate Management (post-completion maintenance scheduling, home security, and landscaping). Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the firm's primary technology asset, used during preconstruction for design visualization and constructibility review. The firm offers no public-facing software, API, or AI/ML capabilities, and holds no disclosed patents or trademarks.

Revenue is generated entirely through one-time, project-based construction contracts negotiated individually with each homeowner, with pricing that varies by scope, materials, and specifications and no standard tiers. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales: the firm engages clients through referrals, architectural and designer partnerships, and earned media coverage in publications such as Architectural Digest, Dwell, Robb Report, Curbed LA, LA Times, Huffington Post, and Nobleman Magazine. With no disclosed revenue, external funding, or outside investors, the business operates as a founder-owned partnership concentrated entirely within California.
