  Developer Michael Norton retained Developers First in 2005 to assist with his Cedar Ridge Estates, a 200-unit townhouse development to be built in Holliston, Massachusetts. Near-term objectives are acquisition financing and finalization of zoning approvals.

"Miller Blew has a lot of experience. He helps keep me out of trouble and in focus, especially when things do not go exactly as planned."

     
  Millennium Venture Group Executives retained Developers First in 2002 as a strategic advisor and to assist the company in developing a debt financing program for small format retail stores. The current objective is a warehouse financing for the current 60-store development pipeline.

Founder, Dave Fisher: "Miller has been a constant with MVG as we have proceeded along anything but a strategic straight line. He is very patient and creative, and once we complete the current round of financing, I expect he will move on to help us build a dealer network for our unique small store specialty."

     
  Developers Elgin Wolfe and Wayne Purdon retained Developers First originally in 1996 to assist with financing for Tri-Main Center, their 600,000 square foot commercial redevelopment of a former Ford plant in Buffalo, NY. The near-term objective is to complete a sale of the property.

"Miller and his staff understood us very well from the beginning because they developed historical commercial properties in Boston. We have completed several financings with them, and now have entrusted them with the sale of the asset."
