About Us

Delta Commercial Group provides a wide range of development services for land owners, investment groups and retail development companies in the Western United States. Delta’s primary function is the preparation and implementation of comprehensive development plans for anchored shopping centers. Delta recently expanded its business to include acquisition and redevelopment of shopping centers and “big-box” retailers (such as closed supermarket buildings and surplus Wal-Mart stores). Delta’s business plan for these projects revolves around three critical components: the Tenant Plan (also referred to as the “marketing plan’); the Site Plan (including architectural and engineering design); and the Proforma Statements (essentially, the project’s “P&L Statement”). Delta is actively pursuing opportunities throughout Nevada, Arizona, Southern California, Southern Utah, the Pacific Northwest, and the Dallas-Fort Worth Metro area.


History

The company was formed in 1984 as Delta Capital Group … which was a spin-off of Century Financial Services, a company Doug McGeary founded in 1980. Delta Capital Group’s business was to provide financing for major companies throughout the United States and portfolio financing for banks and other financial institutions. Over the next few years, Delta began to direct its attention towards equity and debt financing for commercial development projects … but the company soon expanded its focus to include other development services which would compliment its project financing capabilities. Those new development services included … comprehensive research of the trade area, and the layout and design of the project in accordance with the trade area research. By 1993 the transition was complete as Delta focused its attention exclusively on the preparation and implementation of development plans for anchored shopping centers … thus the birth of Delta Commercial Group.

“I have found that the process of real estate development has been very formulaic for most of the industry. It is Delta’s goal to bring our unique methods to the development process. We are creative in our vision, and I believe our disciplined approach provides the formula for successful projects.”
