Profit-Sharing
Lot Sale Program
October 2026
The Palisades Company is a collective of local builders, architects, and community members who will lease your vacant lot, build a new home, and share the profit with you when the finished home sells.
How it works
You keep full legal ownership of your land while the Palisades Company pays all design, permitting, and construction costs of the new home.
Your land is appraised up front, and you sign a land lease with The Palisades Company. Your carry costs stop immediately.
Our team designs, permits and builds a new home on your lot. We cover all approvals, costs and property taxes.
The sale proceeds purchase your land at its full appraised value plus a 10% premium from profit sharing and realtor commission savings.
You have the option to buy the finished home, with a credit equal to 10% of your land value.
Why we're doing this. To speed the recovery of the Palisades: turning vacant lots back into beautiful family homes, clearing blight, and bringing neighbors home sooner.
