Infill Residential Opportunities Attract Out-of-State Builder/Investor; Prompts New Joint Venture and Pipeline of Projects in Arizona





PHOENIX, AZ – The recovering Phoenix homebuilding market has flexed its muscle once again, prompting a new joint venture that links local real estate development veterans Steven Pritulsky and Paul Timm, and their company New Leaf Communities, with long-time Southern California-based builder Watt Communities.

Steve Pritulsky
The venture, Watt Communities of Arizona, has closed on two infill townhome community sites—one in central Tempe and another in the Biltmore area—that will bring the infill residential experience of Watt Communities to Arizona.

The joint venture is evaluating other sites in key Phoenix area urban infill markets as well, with the goal of developing many more quality, attached for-sale communities.

“We are firm believers in the power of local industry expertise. It is one of the best ways to understand the direction and needs of a market,” said Watt Communities President Howard Press.

“New Leaf brings that expertise to this joint venture and Watt, in turn, brings deep-rooted success in urban residential infill development. The combination will allow us to acquire land and build wisely and precisely, according to what metro Phoenix homebuyers are seeking.”

“We anticipate a pipeline of Watt-New Leaf deals that will take advantage of some very unique land positions in Metro Phoenix and bring new, quality living options and innovative product designs into our urban cores,” said Pritulsky, who serves as New Leaf Communities President and CEO. “We are thrilled to have Watt as a partner.”

Paul Timm
Two sites previously acquired by New Leaf have been purchased by the new venture. The company’s “Dorsey” project is located on 3 acres in central Tempe, Ariz., just south of the southwest corner of Broadway Road and Dorsey Lane, and within minutes of the Loop 101, Loop 202 and US 60 Superstition freeways.

In the planning stage now, the venture intends to develop a 54-unit for-sale townhome community. When completed, the project will be complimented by other existing uses within Dorsey Crossing, a mixed-use residential, office and commercial services development.

The venture’s “Biltmore” project site is located less than a mile south of 24th Street and Camelback Road, and the Biltmore Fashion Square. It totals 1.7 acres south of Glenrosa Avenue between 26th and 27th streets.

The site is a mile east of the 51 Freeway and just three miles north of Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. Like the Tempe location, the Biltmore site is planned for townhome development, with 29 units envisioned for the project.

Both properties will offer contemporary, three-story urban townhomes ranging in size from 1,400 to 1,800 square feet, and each with its own two-car garage. 

Community amenities will include gated entry, pool/ramada/sundeck, outdoor poolside kitchen and landscaped paseos throughout. Pricing for the new projects will be released as the communities near completion.

Dorsey Crossing, Tempe, AZ
“These are urban locations within established employment cores, and our projects will match the quality and the vibrancy of these neighborhoods,” said Timm, who serves as New Leaf Communities Chief Operating Officer. “They will allow Phoenix residents to move from renting to owning, without giving up any of their urban lifestyle.”

Prior to forming New Leaf Communities, Pritulsky spent 20 years analyzing, acquiring and developing residential projects totaling more than 7,000 acres and 17,000 residential lots.

Timm has more than 25 years of residential development experience, including the construction of numerous subdivisions and the formation of several investment partnerships for commercial and residential real estate in the Southwestern U.S.

Lincoln Property Company Earns Honors; Grows Management Portfolio to Highest Point in Office’s History

7025 North Scottsdale Road, Scottsdale, AZ


Alisa Timm
PHOENIX, AZ – The Desert West Region of Lincoln Property Company (LPC) this week pushed its management portfolio to the highest point in the office’s history with the assignment of 7025 North Scottsdale.

Under the leadership of new Director of Management Services Alisa Timm, the firm also retained 100 percent of its nearly 6 million-square-foot portfolio in 2013 through multiple sales transactions, and expects continued and significant expansion in 2014.

The announcement came on the same day that LPC earned The Outstanding Building of the Year (TOBY) award by the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) for management of the Arizona Game and Fish (AZGF) Department Headquarters. Located at 5000 W. Carefree Highway in Phoenix, LPC developed the project in 2007. 

David Krumwiede
It was the first-ever project to achieve LEED Platinum certification nationally for the organization and LPC has retained the management assignment for the campus ever since.

“We are known as a very successful property developer and owner, but we are also an exceptional property manager. In fact, 50 percent of our portfolio is third-party management,” said Timm, a 25-year industry veteran.

“That we have retained these clients year after year, and through changes in ownership, is noteworthy and extremely unusual in a rising market like Phoenix, where volatility is increasing.”

“Because LPC also owns and develops projects, we approach management assignments with an ownership attitude, which is different than other firms,” added Lincoln Property Company’s Executive Vice President David Krumwiede.


Lauren Grant
 “I consider our team the most elite managers. We have the talent, and we give our experts the time and resources they need to fully commit to a project’s goals in a very sophisticated way.”

LPC’s management portfolio now also includes 7025 North Scottsdale. Totaling 91,148 square feet, the three-story, Class A office building provides direct frontage to Scottsdale Road, adjacency to market-leading amenities and prime mountain views.

LPC’s new Senior Property Manager, Lauren Grant, will oversee the project. With almost 10 years of commercial real estate experience, Grant has managed more than 2 million square feet of Class A office and retail product in Arizona and California.

The new assignment joins an LPC property management portfolio that also includes contracts retained through sales transactions of Broadway 101 Commerce Park, an 11-building, 808,000-square-foot mixed-use project in Mesa, Ariz., and Sky Harbor Business Center (formerly Lincoln Sky Harbor), a 130,000-square-foot project located next to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.

Arizona Fish & Game Department Headquarters
5000 West Carefree Highway, Phoenix, AZ
The Phoenix Business Journal recently ranked LPC among the top 10 property management firms in the Valley.

 Under direction by Timm, LPC expects to continue to grow that presence in 2014, with an emphasis on office, industrial and retail assignments, and with plans to grow its new Las Vegas office as well as expand into Utah and New Mexico in the next 24 months.
