OUR HISTORY

Founded in 2003, Schneider Development Services brings almost two decades of experience in real estate acquisition, development, and asset management. President and founder Jake Schneider, a second generation architect, began his development efforts with a mission to adaptively reuse vacant and derelict properties in Buffalo’s downtown core. Jake’s expertise, gained over 35 years as a practicing architect in Western New York, has given the company a distinct professional advantage for adaptive reuse and mixed-use development projects. His experience in the fields of historic architecture, project delivery, project estimating, construction methods, construction materials, design, scheduling and project management have favorably positioned Schneider Development Services to design and develop high caliber properties.

The company’s deep architectural roots can be seen in the high-quality building design and performance that define each of the company’s projects and in the company’s ability to deliver award-winning spaces that are fine-tuned to meet market demand or perfectly tailored to suit a specific tenant.

Over the years, Schneider Development Services has cultivated strong relationships with debt and equity markets, public sector stakeholders, contractors, design professionals, and all necessary parties required to structure a successful project. Whether you are looking for the perfect space to fit your needs, or a have a property you are looking to either sell or redevelop – give us a call today.
