About High West

High West Development Group was founded on a simple premise: big-firm experience, small-firm intentionality. Our team has managed nearly $1 billion in real estate construction value — from $100M+ institutional deals to multifamily housing and boutique hospitality projects — and we've chosen to do this work differently.

We believe the best projects come from a small, focused team that can move with precision and care. We’re not chasing scale. We’re choosing projects where we can be deeply involved, where our experience makes a real difference, and where the end result adds lasting value to both investors and communities.

In the Mountain West, where nature sets the pace, we build thoughtfully — creating places that feel honest, enduring, and at home in their landscape.
