DEVELOPMENT TEAM
WhiteStar Development
Whitestar Development in joint venture with Mahaman and Velosity have assembled a world class development team for the execution and delivery of the Thermal Beach Club. Founded by Patrick Belous in 2001, Whitestar Management is a premier high-end property management company in the Greater Palm Springs area with over 6,000 properties and more than 80 communities. Building on years of experience in real estate from managing entire communities to building private lakes and amenities, Patrick Belous and Brian Grantham then co-founded Whitestar Development to expand into delivering a one-of-a-kind, unique luxury multi-generational community. Surrounding themselves with top tier strategic partners, Patrick and Brian spent eight years creating the vision and securing entitlements for Thermal Beach Club, which carries no debt and was fully self-funded through entitlement.
Mahaman
The founding partners of Mahaman have demonstrable success in completed projects globally, and currently have several under development. Mahaman’s principal’s experience, covers the total spectrum of real estate development, from acquisition through to development, and ongoing management.
Mahaman’s niche success has been to assemble unique strategic land parcels, then achieve through rezoning & world class planning and architectural concepts, beneficial development approvals, thus providing significant value to our investors and land owners. The ability to then deliver completed construction, on time & on budget, at a luxury standard, through their project & construction management professionals, compliments the overall resources of the group.
As a group we have planned and built projects in urban centers and remote sites in the USA, Australia, Mexico, Europe, Central America and the Caribbean. Our experience has taught us how to meet the challenges of remote work and mitigate the myriad issues that arise when developing a unique resort residential project in a distant setting.
Velosity
The principals of Velosity have enjoyed over 50 years of success in the management and execution of over $10b in luxury resort real estate project sales in North & Central America and the Caribbean. Velosity will provide an exclusive brokerage representation with Thermal Beach Club. This exclusivity is meaningful as it singularly represents and is compensated with only one project in a specific marketplace. This dedication ensures the alignment of financial budgets and goals with the project execution and brand. Velsoity’s approach is a bespoke and integrated delivery to the branding, marketing and sales of the project and its real estate and membership offerings. Velosity also is integral in the development and programming of a project including envisioning, positioning, pricing, phasing, product mix and sizing, amenity identity and programming, and coordination with the hospitality brand.
