As one of the founding principals of Rolland, DelValle & Bradley, Inc. (RDB), Carlos DelValle is actively involved in every facet of the architectural and interior design firm’s projects. A Ponte Vedra Beach resident, he and his wife, Terry, are the parents of two adult sons. Carlos DelValle By Jennifer Logue
What are your primary duties and responsibilities with Rolland, DelValle & Bradley? I’m one of the three founding principals and owners of our 22-year-old firm. My responsibilities include archi- tectural design, business development, company manage- ment, contract administration, overseeing construction documents production and basically anything else that needs to be done…including turning off the lights at the end of most days. I have two business partners and all three of us worked for large firms before we started our firm. None of us liked the fact that, as we moved up the corporate ladder in these large firms, we were spend- ing less hands-on time on design, so we decided that RDB would follow a different business model. At RDB, all three principals are directly and actively involved in design and client relationships. Every associate is a self-directed, experienced professional and everyone is involved in the production of projects. For these reasons, we have fought the temptation to grow much larger, and our firm’s portfolio demonstrates that a mid-sized firm can design and deliver very large, complex, quality projects.
What prompted your interest in architecture? As far back as I can remember, I was always sketching and building things. I grew up in a small coastal town in North Carolina and I remember as a kid going to con- struction job sites and asking for lumber scraps so I could build tree houses with my buddies. I also have to credit my father for giving me guidance. Dad was not an archi- tect; he was a college professor in a totally different field. However, he had a natural, self-taught, artistic ability and he introduced me to architecture when I was very young. By the time I was in middle school, I knew this is what I wanted to do. I worked in construction every summer from the time I was 16 all the way through college, and I attribute that experience to really learning how buildings Photo by Jennifer Logue come together.

The firm’s clients come from multiple industries, including trucking and specialty vehicles, food services, healthcare, technology, software and automotive repair. The company is organized into seven differ- ent operating divisions that are targeted at different markets. Shivers said the business’ value proposi- tion is its ability to provide clients with quick access to capital and terms that are more flexible than those established by banks. “We’re able to make our credit decisions and close our transactions in less than a day,” remarked Shivers. “Our customers can apply online, receive electronic docu- mentation and consummate a loan.” Shivers refers to his company as a “spread margin” business, meaning the company borrows money at one rate, lends at another rate and gains its profit based on the difference. He added that the firm raises money through accessing the capital and securitization markets and utilizing its bank credit facilities. Photos courtesy of Navitas Credit Corp.

Photos courtesy of Markland Markland sees strong sales increase Markland had 20 home sales ranging from $305,000 to $750,000 in April. Featuring homes priced from $280,000 and up, Markland offers a variety of home plans from six of the area’s premier builders, with five models cur- rently open for tours. Located east of I-95 on International Golf Parkway, the community includes a private enclave of homes coupled with amenities that include swimming, tennis, fitness, neighborhood parks and more. Linda Sherrer of Berkshire Hathaway said that in April, Northeast Florida only had about 100 days of inventory, yet sales continued to be strong. Given the lack of attractive resale homes available for purchase, Realtors say, some buyers are finding the new home market to be a better match for their housing needs. Terri Bradley-Pa’ala of Dream Finders Homes has met many of the prospective homebuyers visiting Markland. “People want to live in St. Johns County because of the A-rated schools, new construction and the natural envi- ronment,” Bradley-Pa’ala said. “The County Road 210 corridor is very ac- recreational lakes. too, it was welcoming and convenient. work with.

Miles of walking and bicycling trails on the banks of the St. Johns River are among the healthy-living style amenities that residents enjoy at Mattamy Homes’ RiverTown. “RiverTown is designed to complement an active family lifestyle and the natural beauty of the St. Johns River,” said Jason Sessions, vice president of land acquisition and develop- ment for Mattamy Homes. “A large portion of RiverTown is dedicated to green space. Our trail system promotes healthy living and connectivity, enhancing the sense of community at RiverTown.” In addition to its trails, the community has a scenic riverfront park for fishing or relaxing by the water, and a kayak launch, offering residents easy access to the river. The RiverHouse Amenity Center includes a junior-sized Olympic pool and a kid-friendly zero-entry recreational pool with a corkscrew slide. There are three Har-Tru lighted tennis courts, a state-of-the-art fitness center, social clubhouse and play fields. RiverTown also has a full-time social programming director who plans events and activities for residents of all ages. The RiverClub, the community’s upcoming, second amenity center, will be located directly on the St. Johns River and is expected to open in late 2017. A state-of-the-art $6 million fa- cility, the RiverClub will feature a 5,100 square foot clubhouse, luxurious pool, river boardwalk, children’s playground, second kayak launch, event lawn and more. Located in northwest St. Johns County, RiverTown offers a wide variety of single-family homes ranging in size from 1,700 square feet to more than 3,500 square feet, featuring spacious front porches and covered lanais to enjoy the community’s natural setting.
