Kaufman works hard to continue Schottenstein’s tradition of providing an excellent quality of life, a positive experience and a relationship with the community residents.  Both Brett and SREG pride themselves on integrity, business ethics and establishing rapport with residents, suppliers and contractors in all dealings.
