Real Estate Group
GROUP
Our Group is a private real estate and development company focused on the acquisition, structuring, and development of residential, commercial, and mixed-use opportunities across select growth markets. We operate through an integrated approach that combines land strategy, development coordination, design direction, strategic partnerships, and operational oversight to support long-term value creation across thoughtfully planned real estate projects.
By aligning acquisition strategy, development planning, market positioning, and project execution within a centralized framework, we are able to create efficient structures designed to support disciplined and scalable growth across a range of real estate opportunities.
We believe long-term real estate value is created through thoughtful planning, strategic relationships, disciplined execution, and strong alignment between land, design, and market demand. Our approach prioritizes selectivity, operational discipline, and long-term positioning over transactional volume.
Through strategic partnerships with landowners, builders, architects, investors, and industry professionals, our Group focuses on creating adaptable real estate opportunities designed to perform across evolving residential, commercial, and mixed-use markets.
APPROACH
Our approach is built around the belief that long-term real estate value requires more than acquisition alone. We combine land strategy, development coordination, operational oversight, design direction, and strategic partnerships within a unified framework designed to support disciplined and scalable growth across residential, commercial, and mixed-use projects.
By integrating these functions within a centralized operating model, we are able to create structured development processes that improve alignment, efficiency, and long-term project performance.
We prioritize thoughtful execution, adaptability, and long-term value creation over transactional volume. Through market-informed decision making, operational discipline, and strategic collaboration, we focus on building durable real estate opportunities capable of evolving alongside changing market conditions, demographic trends, and development landscapes.
FOUNDING
Our Founding
Avery and West Group
The Lipscomb Family
Our Group was founded as a permanent, privately held real estate platform owned and managed by the Lipscomb Family, established on the principle that long-term real estate value is created through disciplined capital allocation, institutional-grade underwriting, and vertically integrated development execution rather than transactional activity alone. As development markets, demographic trends, and capital structures continue to evolve, we believe the modern real estate landscape requires greater integration across acquisition, design, construction coordination, and long-term asset management.
From its inception, the purpose of the firm has been to build a structured and enduring platform for sourcing, evaluating, and executing residential, commercial, and mixed-use real estate opportunities across select growth markets. The focus is not volume, but precision—emphasizing selectivity, alignment, and long-term value creation through well-structured partnerships and disciplined execution.
Our founding framework is rooted in institutional-style capital management applied within a boutique development structure. This includes oversight of a residential real estate portfolio valued at approximately $10M, with responsibility for operational performance, capital planning, and long-term asset optimization. In parallel, our Group has supported underwriting, financial modeling, and development evaluation across more than $350M in aggregate real estate capitalization, including stabilized assets approaching $30M individually and development projects exceeding $100M in total capitalization.
This foundation is further shaped by direct exposure to institutional underwriting methodologies, including IRR analysis, DSCR evaluation, loan-to-cost (LTC) and loan-to-value (LTV) structuring, exit capitalization rate sensitivity, and downside risk modeling. These frameworks are applied alongside capital improvement planning, budget oversight, and long-term operational forecasting to evaluate both stabilized assets and ground-up development opportunities.
Operationally, our experience includes coordination within large-scale construction and production environments, including a structural insulated panel (SIP) manufacturing operation exceeding 800,000 square feet of annual production capacity. This provided integrated exposure across construction logistics, engineering coordination, procurement, production scheduling, and project execution at scale.
The result is a platform designed around alignment between capital strategy, development execution, operational discipline, and long-term ownership principles. Through strategic partnerships with landowners, builders, architects, investors, and industry professionals, our Group focuses on creating durable real estate opportunities positioned for sustained performance across residential, commercial, and mixed-use markets.
This founding vision reflects a commitment to disciplined growth, thoughtful execution, and long-term value creation across all stages of the real estate lifecycle.
