Finding the right site or building for your business can be a formidable and time consuming challenge. Even the most seasoned business owner who ventures forward unassisted in the site selection process can quickly become overwhelmed.

MCPED understands that your decision whether to locate in Macomb County can be positively influenced by our ability to provide you with critical information: the availability of suitable sites and facilities; the quality of our communities, their amenities and infrastructure; and the opportunity to secure incentives. That is why the MCPED should serve as your comprehensive source for assistance in the site selection process.

Selection Process

It all begins with your call or e-mail to MCPED. Once we have your site/facility specifications, we will use our several databases and network of Realtors and other real estate professionals to assemble for you a detailed portfolio of suitable properties. Upon your review, we will arrange a tour of select sites/facilities.

A tour may include meetings with property agents and local officials, when appropriate. In the course of the site selection process, MCPED will serve as your liaison with local governments to help you secure available tax incentives, local permits and approvals. Further, if your facility specifications and time frame permit, you may be interested in taking advantage of the development and tax benefits associated with brownfield properties.

Once your “short list” of properties is complete, MCPED will provide you with all of the additional data and confirmations that you need for your final deliberations. We will strive to ensure that your decision to locate in Macomb County can be made with unqualified confidence.
