Inside the World of Preconstruction with Alyssa Osborn

RESA FIU had the pleasure of hosting Alyssa Osborn, Preconstruction Manager at Coastal Construction Company, for an inspiring guest speaker session. Alyssa brought an engaging mix of expertise and real-world perspective as she walked students through the essentials of the preconstruction process, from budgeting strategies and project planning to managing multifamily developments. Her passion for her work and her clarity in explaining complex topics made the session both informative and relatable.

Throughout her presentation, Alyssa showcased several of Coastal Construction’s standout projects across Miami, giving members a behind-the-scenes look at how major developments come together from the ground up. Students were able to explore real case studies, learn how teams collaborate to bring designs to life, and understand how every decision in preconstruction impacts the success of a project.

What made this session truly special was the energy and curiosity in the room. Alyssa’s insights not only helped students connect theory with practice but also highlighted how leadership, precision, and creativity all play a role in shaping Miami’s skyline. A huge thank-you to Alyssa Osborn for sharing her experience and inspiring our members to think bigger about their future in real estate.
