Advocacy
Don’t let the major rail carriers push you around. With rail designation you have far more leverage to negotiate
Property Tax Relief
If you receive or ship goods directly onto your property or at a nearby railyard, you may be surprised to learn about the tax relief you're entitled to.
Due Diligence
Consultation prior to acquisition or development is critical to the management of your assets and can save you hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars.
