With over 25 years of successful real estate development transactions under our belt, we have experience in all forms of land transactions.
Delivering decades of successful experience in real property management and development, land sales, and acquisitions ranging from raw land and ranches to early-stage subdivisions and master plan communities, including large acreage multi-million dollar transactions, GHA understands the opportunities and challenges of land-based industries. GHA brings unmatched experience in real estate leasing programs from new contract negotiation to collections, focusing on communication, industrial, mining, grazing, and utility industries.
GHA has built a career interfacing with the public land managers and has administered and lead land exchange programs with the Bureau of Land Management, US Forest Service, Bureau of Reclamation, and Nevada Department of Transportation.
Congressional Lands Bills are viable tools to deliver economic development and environmental protections for western counties; GHA has worked in concert with cities, counties, states, federal land managers, and congressional delegations on six separate county lands bills over the past 25 years. The experiences, successes, and struggles gleaned from each of these legislative land acts allow GHA to offer solid and successful federal land strategies to its projects and clients.
Our team has over 25 years of direct experience in land ownership, ranch ownership and management, farm operations, water rights, mineral estates and royalties, and transactional structures. We can help owners with valuation analysis, marketing strategies, negotiation strategies, risk assessment, corporate structures, and capital allocation.
Valuation Analysis
All land-based projects need accurate project valuations. Utilizing market data, both historical and current, the GHA team uses valuation models targeting to develop highest and best uses scenarios. The scenarios help owners to better understand offers and maximize value from their land assets.
Risk Assessment
The GHA team performs a comprehensive review of entitlements, development, and market information to provide project risk assessment and potential mitigation measures with the goal of delivering a project that maximizes value. By de-risking the project through the thorough understanding of the assets, owners are fully armed with the best data possible to make solid decisions for the future of their assets.
Relationships
Over the course of the past 25 years, GHA has developed a deep bench filled with personal relationships with the land, water, and mineral development communities. These relationships are based on trust gained from working together and understanding the demands of public officials, utility customers, and technical professionals as projects are developed. Relationships are critical to project success; GHA is extremely proud of the professional relationships we have established over the course of our careers and value these relationships above all other abilities.
Marketing Strategy
Vision, community, and an overall understanding of the land assets work together to create a successful marketing strategy. All land assets are unique and GHA engages as an owner to understand the nuances and unlock value in the land. We work with professional teams of engineers, land planners, real estate lawyers, and regional brokers with intimate market knowledge. GHA pairs the best-in-class technical team and processes with entrenched local brokerage experience to deliver results for our clients.
Structuring & Capital
GHA deploys its structuring and joint venture experience to provide a variety of corporate structures, joint venture, operating agreements, and waterfall structures to help maximize value and deliver returns. GHA strives to assist clients as they weigh their goals for maximizing value with consideration for timing and risk.
