I am seeking an investor/partner for the Lighthouse Village
Development
Located in Homer, Alaska , four-and-a-half hours south of Anchorage
on the very tip of the Kenai Peninsula. Homer, the Halibut Fishing
Capital of the World, annually attracts more than one million
visitors to the area. I also regard Homer as the Alaskan Riviera, so
similar in beauty to the Mediterranean Riviera and the Santa Barbara
Riviera, where the land meets the sea. This summer 2011, the cruise
lines are scheduled for 15 stops down at the end of the Spit Road,
where all the ships and boats are moored.
The Lighthouse Village is located at the top of the Spit Road,
directly on the path for all tourists and visitors alike. The
nearby Homer Airport is serviced by several daily forty minute
flights from Anchorage.
After attending the Americas Lodging Investors Summit in San Diego
this past January, 2011, the hotel and lodging news was so upbeat, I
felt it was time to proceed on this 74 unit development, situated
on 4.5 commercial acres, 3.2 usable building acres. The other 1.2
acres are wetlands. This bay-front property, with the most
spectacular views, has already been permitted and platted with many
of the building aspects in place, such as the access, parking,
drainage, landscaping, and traffic analysis completed as well as the
site elevation plans and the conceptual views of the property.
I am pleased to work with the team already assembled, the architect,
contractor, surveyor, engineer, and realty company. Recently, I
have been advertising for interested persons to call me re the
retail/office space offered. A coffee/pastry shop, a bike shop, a
clothing store, a copy shop, a hair salon are considered ideal
tenants in that location. Already existing on the property is a
pizza place, several cabin rentals, boat and vehicle storage, plus
an auto body shop and office. The Lighthouse itself is currently a
rental.
During the ALIS Conference, I connected with a hotel group, whose
design and set-up I thought ideal for an Alaskan property. After
conducting my due diligence study and conferring with my hotel
development mentor, the figures reveal a promising market. Plans are
in place to begin breaking ground May 2012, when the ground is
ready, and continuing the build-out non-stop until completion,
probably all within one year’s time.
Please call me @ (208) 755-2616 for further particulars regarding
this project.
