Gary King is a visionary land developer who typically acquires farmland and rezones it to a new and improved usage. Getting the necessary approvals to build a project that is economically viable is what rezoning is all about. It is a complex highly political, community sensitive, costly and very time consuming process that ultimately involves many detailed studies, reports and evaluations. Gary has gained a tremendous amount of real estate experience in numerous jurisdictions in Western Canada and Southwestern United States.
Having graduated from several Universities and Post Graduate Real Estate Affiliations, his specialized field of rezoning began when he was Vice President of Greater Vancouver Realty in the 1980's and '90's. Gary's interaction with PGA Tour Players in Vancouver and Palm Springs, California and subsequent involvement with Jack Nicklaus Golf Services earned him an invitation by Mr. Nicklaus personally to attend the Memorial Tournament, to include winner celebrations, at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio. Mr. Nicklaus wrote: "We believe the tournament and Muirfield Village Golf Club are outstanding examples of quality golf development. Your attendance will allow you to witness the impact of golf on a community, as well as the many marketing opportunities golf affords the quality developer."
Gary is the Founder of two significant land development projects in Alberta, Canada.
Firstly, The Lakes of Muirfield gated Golf Course & Residential community at Lyalta, Alberta, just 15 minutes from the Calgary International Airport on Country Hills Blvd.
Secondly, Grandview Gardens, with golf privileges at The Lakes of Muirfield, is a gated Manufactured Home Community in Strathmore, Alberta, which is located on the TransCanada Highway just twenty minutes east of the City of Calgary.
