In 1996, Joshua McAlees graduated from Northwood University with his Bachelor’s Degree in International Business and Banking/Finance. After graduating, he began working for Nicklaus Design, constructing golf courses, car dealerships, and other high-profile commercial projects. During the beginning, he was predominately tasked with completing cost estimation and budgeting for full construction schedules. As he advanced in his career, however, Josh began to step into various project management roles for construction projections throughout Florida. Eventually, he was promoted to Director of Construction and Partner. During his time with Nicklaus Design, annual sales saw an increase of $45 million.

Having developed a passion for contracting and project management, Josh went on to earn his general contractor and real estate licenses in 2003. Deciding he wanted to work for himself, Josh founded his company Capital Construction and Development, Inc. a year later. The company initially focused on commercial development projects, such as office and warehouse properties, but after the 2009 market crash, Josh shifted his company’s focus to high-end residential construction.

During his time as president, Joshua McAlees has spearheaded a myriad of efforts within the construction process. As a manager of the development process, he has gained experience exercising due diligence, managing financing, contract negotiations, permitting, land planning, and construction. This experience has enabled Josh to train his employees in various aspects of construction and development processes.

With his eminent background in the construction and development industry, Joshua McAlees is able to ensure his company remains relevant and revered in the competitive real estate industry. Spearheaded by Josh’s experience and expertise, Capital Construction and Development, Inc. is able to take on projects other companies may not be equipped to effectively execute. As Josh remains an advocate of fostering relationships with clients, his company gives each client’s project the attention it deserves. This has served to build a reputation the company upholds through its dedication, innovation, and quality of performance.

In Florida, Capital Construction and Development, Inc. has built commercial and residential projects totaling over $200 million. One of the most recent projects is 3621 South Ocean, a $40 million multi-family project located in Palm Beach County, Highland Beach. The project features luxurious oceanfront living with local amenities and its construction is well underway. During his career, Josh has accounted for over 1,000,000 square feet of buildings in Florida, constructing over $160,000,000 worth of projects.

As a native born Floridian, Joshua McAlees is particularly passionate about the Florida real estate market. Believing it has much to offer millennials and retirees alike, he is excited to become more involved in the market over the upcoming years.
