Properties with the potential for thoughtful residential development

We welcome introductions from owners, brokers and real estate professionals who know a property may have value beyond its current use.

A premium homesite in Paradise Valley, Scottsdale, North Scottsdale, Arcadia or Biltmore.
An older luxury home where the underlying land may support a stronger residential outcome.
A teardown candidate with a credible path to a new luxury residence.
A substantial estate remodel or expansion opportunity.
A premium infill site with appropriate access, utilities and residential zoning.
A listed or off-market property that deserves a private development review.

How we evaluate the property

The site comes first

A compelling address is only the beginning. We consider the setting, lot orientation, existing improvements, access, utilities, zoning, buildable area, market support and acquisition basis together. Each opportunity is reviewed on its own merits before any commitment is considered.

Established Arizona luxury submarket with credible comparable activity
Legal access and a practical, costed utility path
Zoning and setbacks that support the intended residence
Topography and soils that do not overwhelm the budget
An acquisition basis that leaves room for design quality
A defensible position against likely competing product

Development approach

From property potential to a defined development plan

Step one

Understand the site

We begin with the land, the existing residence if any, the surrounding market and what the property can credibly support.

Step two

Define the residential opportunity

The intended new residence, renovation or expansion for resale is shaped for the site and the likely buyer, not treated as a repeated plan.

Step three

Coordinate design and construction

Architecture, interiors, consultants, budget and schedule are developed with the separately operated construction company and the appropriate professional team.

Step four

Cost before commitment

Site work, construction, professional costs, schedule and material risks are evaluated before construction is authorized.

Throughout

Govern decisions

Material scope, budget and schedule decisions are reviewed, approved and recorded.

Throughout

Report clearly

Project participants receive reporting appropriate to their role, including current milestone, budget and risk information.

Architecture, interior design, landscape design, engineering and other professional services are performed by the appropriate professionals engaged for the project. Physical construction is performed by the appropriately licensed, separately operated construction company under the applicable agreements. Community Development Homes is not the builder, general contractor or construction contractor.

For brokers and real estate professionals

Bring us the opportunity, listed or off market

Brokers and real estate professionals may submit a property directly for private review. Clear ownership or authority to submit, the address or parcel information, price expectations and any available property documents help us respond efficiently.

Brokerage, representation and compensation are handled according to the specific transaction and any documented arrangement. A submission by itself does not create an agency, brokerage or compensation obligation.

Evaluation

Every lot is measured the same way

Location: Submarket, setting, access, surroundings, and long-term desirability.
Entitlement: Zoning, approvals in place, approvals required, and realistic path and timing.
Market support: Comparable activity, price positioning, absorption, and buyer profile.
Design potential: What the site allows architecturally and how that fits the intended buyer.
Execution feasibility: Site work, utilities, contractor availability, and delivery sequence.
Financial viability: Acquisition basis, cost structure, and whether the opportunity underwrites.
