Mequon Town Center

2016
$19 Million

The Mequon Town Center is a revolutionary mixed-use development on three acres in the center of the City of Mequon. Shaffer Development partnered with Wired Properties to complete this project. This was the first new mixed use development and the first new multifamily development in over 20 years in Mequon. This project involved creating a new zoning code, a public private partnership involving a city loan, and shared parking.

The project involved a creative land swap with an American Legion Post and a re-use of a gas station. The $19 million Mequon Town Center project consists of 5 buildings, underground parking, 36,000 square fee of commercial space and 28 luxury apartments.

Cedarburg Condos

2001
$1.5 Million

Shaffer Development began in 2001 by purchasing duplexes in the city of Cedarburg with no money down.  Shaffer renovated these run down rental properties and converted them to individual condominium units. 

This outcome was beneficial to all concerned by increasing the tax base for the city of Cedarburg, and providing a needed source of housing in a moderate price point for owners. The positive cash flow allowed the acquisition of over five properties and provided the equity to invest in larger development projects.

Cedarburg Mixed Use

2006
$3.5 Million

Shaffer Development purchased and secured all entitlements for this abandoned gas station on Lincoln and Washington Streets in downtown Cedarburg.  Shaffer purchased the property from Lakeside Oil and had all remediation completed with grants from the DNR. 

Shaffer secured approval to build a mixed use building with 10,000 square feet of commercial space and five residential units above.  Shaffer sold the project prior to construction and the new owner removed the residential units and replaced them with office space.
