I made that metric up.He nodded approvingly.We're "AI-enabled" now.I don't know what that means.But it's in our investor deck.A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT.I said we needed "enterprise-grade security."

It could hinder development and actually exacerbate the core issue driving housing un-affordability which is a housing shortage.

I won a small development deal in Oregon because of that exact same thing. 

In other words, it’s hard to develop a strict hierarchy of markets.

Suburban development (Frisco, Allen, Dallas central cores) offers immense opportunity, but flipping and STRs demand careful navigation of local regulation and competition.STR potential is vast given tourism, entertainment, tech influx, and well-defined submarkets.Flips require precision timing and strong local comps—especially where mega developments create localized demand spikes.McKinney offers high-growth dynamics with strong lifestyle appeal:Perfect for premium Airbnb experiences (surf park, resort, walkable mixed-use).Flips are higher cost but promising in newly densifying districts.New Braunfels is nuanced:Great for flips in scenic or tourism-focused pockets.STR opportunities limited by regulation—best approached through commercial or SUP-approved zones.

With the right plan and eventually the right manager in place, the role shifts from daily work to oversight and capital decisions.I’m currently working through a phased campground development from the ground up and learning a lot along the way.

Developing a strong relationship with an experienced, competent lender is key.

Capital doesn’t move like that unless people believe in the long-term future of a place.That’s the context for what we’re building.Most developments try to add cabins near something interesting.We’re focused on creating a true climbing village—something that feels like it belongs there.
