Shaping Communities on the East Coast
TenM’s Multifamily Construction Focus
Multifamily construction answers one of the East Coast’s biggest questions: where will people live, learn, and age comfortably as our cities keep growing?
In many ways, multifamily construction is the backbone of vibrant cities, university towns, and retirement havens up and down the East Coast. By definition, any building that houses three or more separate households qualifies as a multifamily property. Yet, the real story is how these places serve people at pivotal life stages, from first-year students to growing families and seniors ready to enjoy new routines.
Since day one, TenM has focused on multifamily construction with a clear purpose: to help communities strengthen alongside strong structures. As a multifamily general contractor, we've delivered hundreds of units across dozens of states, self-performing key trades like framing, roofing, siding, and finish carpentry.
We focus on commercial and residential construction throughout the East Coast, giving clients the advantage of working with one trusted partner from start to finish. You won’t be chasing down subcontractors or juggling misaligned timelines. When you call TenM, you get the answers, the crew, and the coordination, without the headaches. Our team brings a clear focus on precision and timeliness, so you can count on us to not only get the job done, but to deliver results that meet high standards and stay on schedule.
What Qualifies as Multifamily Construction?
Multifamily construction covers a range of building types, all designed to house multiple households within a shared structure or community. At TenM, we specialize in a range of multifamily build types, each serving unique population needs while benefiting from our multi-trade approach.
Apartment Construction
From affordable housing to upscale communities, apartment construction continues to grow, especially near new employment centers. As a multifamily general contractor, we keep the process efficient. Our estimating team prevents scope gaps before the first crew arrives. Our site supervisors coordinate every trade under one TenM schedule. This level of control leads to smoother workflows and earlier move-in dates.
Senior Living Construction
Successful senior living construction blends technical precision with a deep understanding of resident needs. These communities must be safe, accessible, and thoughtfully designed. At TenM, we build wider hallways, enhance lighting for visibility, and integrate dependable life-safety systems. Interior details are just as important. We prioritize warm, welcoming finishes that create a sense of comfort for residents and reassurance for their families.
Mixed-Use Residential
Mixed-use developments combine housing with retail, office, or shared amenities. These projects increase walkability and bring new energy to a neighborhood. They also require extra coordination to ensure that residential and commercial spaces mesh well together. With TenM managing mixed-use residential projects, everything from storefront access to shared courtyards connect as it should, without added stress.
Student Housing Construction
Building for college campuses means working fast and smart. For student housing construction projects, TenM will align material deliveries around academic calendars, prefabricate wall panels when possible, and install durable finishes built to handle student life. On-time delivery means students move in as planned and universities stay on schedule.
Across each of these categories, TenM brings the consistency, accountability, and precision that only a single-source, multi-trade construction partner can provide.
