About Us

New Concord Development is a newly formed residential real estate development company.  It was created and underpinned by a partnership between three seasoned professionals who have worked with each other for more than a decade.  The three partners: James Hussey, Christopher DeThomas and Kevin McManus, all previously held positions as Vice Presidents of the Northeast U.S. Region of WCI Communities, Inc.  The Partners have formed this new development company with the goal of providing potential partners and clients with their combined expertise in the real estate development and construction industry.  They bring expertise and experiences from years of participating in growing a small "local" developer into a publicly traded "national" builder.

New Concord Development is comprised of three main components, Land Development, Construction and Accounting/Finance.  These components can function independently, or in unison, depending on the needs of the client and/or the project.

With more than 70 years of combined experience, the partners of New Concord have been actively involved with the development and construction of numerous communities in and around the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut Tri-state region.  They have been responsible for projects ranging from multi-million dollar single family homes, to entire communities consisting of more than 1,000 homes.  Many of these communities incorporated sophisticated amenities, which included swimming pools, tennis courts, fitness centers, gymnasiums, as well as Village Centers containing commercial/retail uses that enhanced and diversified the community's lifestyle.     

New Concord Development also has a strong reputation as being experts in transitioning a down real estate market.  They have successfully worked with both lenders and owners over the years and have been able to create/increase value to all parties involved by:

• Detecting problems accurately and addressing them early

                        and

• Identifying the most appropriate type of strategy (short-term and long-term) to employ for a specific asset and developing a plan of attack to implement the strategy

In addition to providing superior services, the Partners work hard at maintaining the highly regarded reputations they have built for themselves industry-wide.  As a result of their efforts, they offer their clients access to the hundreds of relationships and resources they have worked hard to develop and cultivate.  These relationships and contacts include Municipal Officials, Realtors, Architects and Engineers, Lenders and numerous other industry Professionals, all of whom are integral components of the success of their business dealings.
