About Darnell Development

A trusted partner in land acquisition, planning, and residential development.

Darnell Development is a real estate development company focused on acquiring, planning, and developing land for high-quality residential communities. We operate in two business segments, home building and land development. Our land development arm, Darnell Development, has the ability to entitle or if already entitled, further subdivide properties into lots for subsequent sale to home building companies. Darnell Development also has the ability to develop fully finished lots which may either be sold to third party home building companies or purchased by our home building entity. The home building segment of our business, under the name T.C. James Homes LLC, constructs and sells residential homes.

Our Mission

Our mission is to develop thoughtfully planned communities that support sustainable growth, create lasting value for investors and partners, and contribute to the long-term success of the communities we serve.

A Strategic Approach to Development

We have an aggressive, strategic, yet practical approach to real estate acquisition and development. We seek out properties in target markets that provide the best potential for profitability while limiting risks, by utilizing extensive knowledge of the industry and leveraging our substantial relationship portfolio. As a “private developer” we tailor our development strategies to maneuver with the ever-changing real estate market in a way that best fits the needs of our investors and company objectives. We create value by managing all areas of the process, that ultimately provide added security. By being a part of negotiating the land purchase, entitlements, development, purchasing, and vertical construction, we are able to capitalize on best management practices at all levels to manage costs and maximize profits.

Working Together to Build Communities

By focusing on affordable housing, Darnell Development is positioned to provide residences to the largest yet under- supplied demographic of the real estate market. We navigate thru the opportunities, quantify local supply and demand, analyze municipalities and utilities for viability, and then develop and build a product that will be affordable to the masses while providing market security. While Darnell Development focuses on land acquisition, planning, and development, T.C. James Homes brings those communities to life through high-quality home construction and sales.
