  • Three years of entitlement and pre-development coordination
  • TIRZ advocacy: 'A TIRZ becomes a magnet, it becomes a commercial magnet.'

Repositioning • value-add

Greater Houston / Fort Bend

Acquisition, repositioning, and lease-up

RV Park → Tiny House Village

Acquired an underperforming RV park and repositioned it as a fully occupied Tiny House village — a textbook value-add conversion that traded depreciating short-stay revenue for residential cash flow on the same dirt.

  • Identified off-market acquisition through deep local relationships
  • Repositioned use class to capture residential demand
  • Stabilized to full occupancy
