VJS Development Group

What VJS Development Group does

VJS Development Group, LLC is a privately held real estate, investment, and development services firm founded in 2004 and headquartered in Pewaukee, Wisconsin. The firm provides site acquisition and assembly, brokerage (leasing, tenant/buyer representation, sales/disposition), consulting, property management, owner's representation, project and partnership accounting, and government affairs services, alongside investment and development offerings such as fee development, build-to-suit/lease, joint venture partnerships, project team assembly and financing, debt and equity sourcing, and development proforma preparation. Since formation, it has participated in over $250 million of transaction volume in lead or supporting roles, and its leadership team offers more than 35 years of combined industry experience across construction, development, brokerage, property management, and consulting.

The firm operates on a relationship-driven, sales-led GTM model, delivering services primarily in Wisconsin (Milwaukee, Pewaukee, Waukesha, Muskego, Wauwatosa, New Berlin) with select multi-state engagements in healthcare real estate. Revenue is generated through four streams: commission-based real estate brokerage, fee-based development services and joint venture participation, project-based consulting and advisory engagements, and ongoing property management. Pricing is project- and transaction-specific rather than tiered, and customer engagements range from single-transaction mandates to multi-phase, multi-year master service agreements (e.g., Rogers Behavioral Health). The firm leverages a strategic collaborative relationship with affiliated construction company VJS Construction Services, Inc. to deliver integrated development and construction solutions.

The customer base is concentrated in healthcare (Rogers Behavioral Health, Aurora Advanced Healthcare), education (St. Augustine Preparatory Academy), banking (Westbury Bank), and community/nonprofit organizations (United Community Center, YMCA of Greater Waukesha County), with named credentials including LEED Silver certification on the Mayfair Medical project and three 2017 regional industry awards for the Augustine Prep site assembly. The firm has no disclosed AI/ML, software, or technology platform components, and operates without external venture or institutional investment.
