How We Work

We partner with land owners and investors in the Greater Chattanooga Region to build communities with purpose.

Here’s a bit about how we typically work with land owners:

  • Introductory discussion with owner(s) about their hopes for the land and their financial expectations

  • Thousand Hills Co evaluates options for development

  • Thousand Hills Co presents development options to owner(s)

  • Ongoing discussion between Thousand Hills Co and owner(s) about partnership and/or purchase options

  • Binding term sheet or contract signed by all parties

  • Single purpose entity created for development activities

  • Due diligence begins (surveying, soil testing, permitting, land planning and designing, engineering, budgeting, financing, etc)

  • Depending upon the results of the due diligence period, the transaction either closes or does not close

  • Once closing occurs, clearing and grading begins immediately

  • Mass grading, roads, and utilities are completed

  • Community amenities are built

  • Pre-sales begin with home builder(s)

  • Home builder(s) begins purchasing lots from development company

  • Development loan is paid down with the proceeds of the lot sales

  • Distributions are made to all partners in the company (including the land owner(s) if applicable)
