Bay Area Land Developer Continues Rapid Growth

Americap announces the addition of five new partners to their team of land development experts.

San Ramon, CA (PRWEB) June 10, 2010 -- San Ramon, California-based residential land developer Americap Development Partners is being heralded by many as an outstanding example of our nations’ continuing economic recovery. In late 2007, Scott D. Clark, CEO of Americap, realized that times were changing—and began to prepare himself and his company for the “opportunity of a lifetime.”

“Real estate is a cyclical game, that’s nothing new,” continues Clark, “and we believed that the real estate gains of the mid 2000’s were not sustainable. When the market turned, we changed our focus to acquiring distressed assets and building a team capable of leading the charge during the recovery.”

Americap spent the duration of the real estate crisis vetting and assembling a team of land acquisition, investment, development and disposition experts from the public and private sector. This strategy proved successful in 2009, with the addition of five executives and land development experts, coverage from local and national news outlets and the acquisition of numerous properties.

Americap is now proud to announce the addition of the following partners over the past three months:
