About Illuminate Development
Since coming together in 2009, Illuminated Development has had a goal of providing community development and focusing on youth cultivation. It’s founders, Idris Assad and Yusuf Cortez are the construction duo behind Illuminated Development. They share a common goal of impacting the community by providing quality real estate at every price point. Idris and Yusuf began working together in 2009 with just $2,000 in cash and a million dollars worth of ideas. The outcome has been in a one-stop factory of acquiring, designing, crafting and selling residential and commercial properties for both the average home buyer and the real estate investor.
Illuminated Development has grown into a profitable company, completing an annual average of 2.5 million dollars in contracted work year-over-year.
The Illuminated Development Vision is to create energy efficient real estate at every price point. Using a systematic approach of finding unmarketable and devalued properties in key areas of metro Atlanta and redesigning those properties to capture the marketable attributes. Whether taking foreclosed, distressed homes or starting from rough wooded lots and bringing them to their full potential; after repair value (ARV).
Illuminated Development has a proven exit strategy in pre-marketing projects to an ever growing pipeline of potential buyers and investors early in the development process. The result is bringing multiple buyers to the table in addition to positively impacting metro Atlanta home values through delivery of quality crafted home designs.
