Edward Michael "Mike" Harris III

Founder (1950 - 2021)

Capital Consultants was born through Mike’s vision and dedication to assisting clients concerned about cost overruns, scheduling problems, and the quality of their construction projects throughout the country. Mike’s primary focus was always the affordable housing industry and multifamily low-income housing tax credit projects. Mike’s vision and direction shaped Capital Consultants into the team we are today, as we continue to provide clients with on-site Owners Representation, Investor/ Lender Inspection Services, and Physical Needs Assessments. Capital Consultants was founded and incorporated in 1997.

Mike founded our sister company, EM Harris Construction Company, incorporated in 1989. E.M. Harris Construction has performed as the General Contractor for numerous multifamily projects financed or funded through several State’s affordable housing programs utilizing low income housing tax credits. Mike received several awards in recognition of his involvement in the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County in conjunction with his focused efforts in neighborhood revitalization and creating opportunities for the residents. Mike also earned recognition from the State of Missouri Senate for sustained high minority participation on EM Harris construction projects, along with diligent Section 3 implementation.
