Subdivision Investment Opportunity64.4 Acres in Pueblo County, CO (60 Lots, Seller Retains Silent Equity)

A Legacy Rooted in Colorado Soil

This land isn’t just dirt it’s history. The 64.4-acre parcel was originally acquired by Ralph C. Taylor, a Colorado historian, newspaper man, radio host, and author of Colorado South of the Border. He raised his children in a home that’s now a designated historical landmark, and his vision for this land was always about community, opportunity, and legacy.

Today, his grandchildren alongside the grandchildren of his original business partner own 50% of this parcel. We’re offering a structured buy-out to a serious investor who can carry forward the vision and unlock the full potential of this land.

This is more than a land deal it’s a chance to build something lasting on the foundation of a family legacy. We’re looking for a visionary investor who sees the value, has the capital, and is ready to lead.

Hi Benjamin,
Thank you so much for the thoughtful welcome and kind words. I really appreciate your interest in the Pueblo parcel and in how I approach JV structuring and value creation—it's exactly the kind of dialogue I was hoping to spark here on BiggerPockets.
When it comes to JV deals, I typically structure them around three pillars: 1. Instant Equity – I source off-market land with built-in upside, often from legacy owners or distressed situations. 2. Clear Roles – I act as the sponsor and strategic lead, while my JV partner brings capital and/or builder capacity. 3. Flexible Exit Options – We align on either a build-to-sell model (targeting 1.5×–1.7× equity multiple over 30–36 months) or a phased exit where lots are sold in tranches to builders.
For the Pueblo deal specifically, the numbers look like this:

Buy-Out of 75% Ownership Estimated Cost $500,000
Sewer & Water Infrastructure Estimated Cost $1,000,000
Lot Development (240 lots) Estimated Cost $11,360,000
Vertical Construction (Homes) Estimated Cost $53,280,000
Total Project Cost $66,140,000
Projected Return Gross Sales $88,800,000 Net Profit $17,060,000 Investor/Builder Share (60%) $10,236,000 Sponsor/Silent Partner Share (40%) $6,824,000 Timeline 30–36 months Target Equity Multiple 1.5×–1.7× Implied IRR ~22–28%

As for turning overlooked parcels into community-driven projects, I start by asking: What story does this land want to tell? In Pueblo, it’s a legacy parcel tied to my grandfather a historian who helped shape the city. That emotional connection drives me to seek partners who build with intention, not just volume.
I look for parcels that are:  Adjacent to growth corridors but underutilized - Zoned for residential or mixed-use with subdivision potential  Held by heirs or longtime owners who are ready to exit but want fair treatment
Then I layer in feasibility, infrastructure planning, and vision mapping—sometimes even before acquisition. I believe in creating neighborhoods that feel rooted, not rushed. That’s where the real value lies.
Would love to hear more about your work in the Poconos and how you approach property management and development. Let’s definitely stay

Hi BP community, I'm Lisa Hentrich, founder of Golden Key Acquisitions LLC, based in Kauai, Hawaii.

I launched my real estate investment company to create fast, fair solutions for sellers and strategic opportunities for investorsespecially in off-market land and wholesale development. My background blends creative entrepreneurship with deal structuring, and I’m passionate about turning overlooked parcels into profitable, community-driven projects.

Currently, I co-own a 64.4-acre subdividable parcel in Pueblo, Colorado, alongside two family members. The remaining owners—who hold a 75% stake—are ready to sell well below market value, creating a rare chance for a JV partner or private lender to step in with instant equity and long-term upside. I joined BiggerPockets to post that opportunity, but quickly realized this platform offers far more than deal visibility—it's a hub for smart connections, real insight, and serious growth.

I'm excited to be here, to learn, collaborate, and contribute. If you're interested in land development, off-market deals, or JV structures, I'd love to connect.
