Klein Values We exist to develop high quality profitable real estate projects, offer the most competent and professional property management possible and provide challenging and rewarding careers for our employees. We are mindful of the mark our developments leave on the cities where we live and work. We develop only those projects that contribute to quality growth of our communities. Tenants are our most valuable assets. We seek recurring, long-term relationships. To earn those relationships we realize we must work hard and go well beyond the normal scope of services associated with our industry. We believe in meritocracy. A person is judged on performance, not on length of employment or background. We believe in promoting from within our organization whenever possible and do so based upon individual competency and achievement. We believe in the fundamental dignity and value of each of our employees. We believe that work should be fun and rewarding. We expect our employees to take pride in themselves and in their performance. And we expect our employees to return some measure to the community from which they earn a living through both financial investments and time commitments to charitable, education, and artistic institutions. We seek long-term recurring financial relationships with our lenders and financial partners. We accept with serious purpose our fiduciary responsibilities and seek to discharge them properly. We believe our success rests on being innovative and occasionally taking bold steps in the development of new projects. We always seek, however, to finance our projects in a conservative manner to afford maximum protection to our lenders, our employees, and our partners.
