CONSTRUCTION AND PROPERTY RECOVERY

From problem property to productive asset.

Chelu Construction helps receivers, fiduciaries, REO agents, asset managers, property managers, and homeowners move difficult properties forward—from authorized securing and cleanup to construction assessment and rehabilitation. Clear scopes, coordinated fieldwork, and documented decisions keep the next step in view.

WHO WE SERVE

Built around your responsibility for the property.

Our team brings deep professional experience across general engineering, hazardous waste management, construction management, insurance loss, and real estate. We connect that experience to a clear scope, qualified specialist coordination, and excellent documented communication.

Receivers

Receivers oversee property under court direction and need a clear record of conditions, decisions, and authorized work.

We support that oversight with phased scopes, securing and cleanup, construction assessment, coordinated rehabilitation, progress photographs, and written change approvals.

Fiduciaries

Fiduciaries manage property and assets on behalf of others, often through estates, trusts, or other appointed responsibilities.

We organize respectful property recovery, contents inventories, retained-item instructions, asset disposition support, and documented repairs around the fiduciary's authority and reporting needs.

REO agents

REO agents help prepare and market lender-owned property, coordinating access, condition information, and readiness for the next transaction.

We provide practical repair scopes, authorized securing and cleanup, rehabilitation, and completion photographs that help agents communicate the property's construction status.

Asset managers

Asset managers direct property decisions, budgets, and the path toward holding, leasing, rehabilitation, or disposition.

We organize priorities, scope options, dependencies, and field progress so the next asset decision is supported by clear construction information and documented exceptions.

Property managers

Property managers coordinate day-to-day property care, occupant concerns, maintenance, and owner reporting.

We help with repair planning, turnovers, rehabilitation, access coordination, and completion records, keeping approved work and communication aligned with the property's operating needs.

Homeowners

Homeowners need to understand what their property requires, what the work includes, and how decisions affect the project.

From planned remodeling to recovery after an insurance event, we help define the construction scope, coordinate qualified trades, and explain progress, changes, and closeout details.

CONTENTS AND ASSET DISPOSITION

A plan for what stays, moves, or sells.

We provide direct support and specialist coordination for inventory, auction and consignment arrangements, transport, storage, and authorized disposal. For fiduciaries and other decision-makers, the work starts with ownership, authority, retained-item instructions, and an agreed record of custody, fees, and disposition.

DEMOLITION AND SITE PREPARATION

Plan the steps before the structure comes down.

Unsafe-building projects can require testing, qualified hazard-abatement coordination, safe utility disconnection and capping, demolition, debris handling, and grading. Our Richmond case study shows why sequencing, safety measures, and communication matter throughout the work.

WHAT WE DO

The right work. In the right sequence.

From immediate stabilization to an approved rehabilitation scope, we help organize the next step around your property’s condition, priorities, and authority to proceed.

Secure and stabilize

Authorized access measures, board-up, temporary fencing, and weather protection within the agreed scope.

Clean up and prepare

Planned cleanouts, debris removal, retained-item protection, and site preparation, with disposition instructions agreed before work begins.

Assess and plan

Construction condition reviews, scope development, priorities, and recommendations for further investigation. Visual assessments do not replace engineering, environmental testing, or regulatory clearance.

Coordinate hazard work

When conditions call for investigation or specialized abatement, we coordinate appropriately qualified professionals, required authorizations, and clearly assigned responsibilities.

Rehabilitate and build

Approved repairs, reconstruction, building-system work, and permit and inspection coordination, organized around the property’s intended use.

Close out and maintain

Completion photographs, agreed project records, remaining exceptions, and follow-on property care to support the property’s next step.

CLEAR COMMUNICATION. COORDINATED DELIVERY.

Know where the work stands.

Progress photographs, written updates, and clear change authorizations help you see what is complete, what is next, and which decisions need attention. We agree on reporting expectations at the start and organize project information through JobTread—from site access and construction coordination to the punch list and closeout records.
