Scott Chandler

Developer/Broker

Fresh out of college in the early 1990s and armed with a Marketing degree, Scott launched his real estate career.  Fascinated with vacant land and new construction, he quickly shifted his focus to real estate development.  Scott handles every aspect of the development process with a hands-on approach, from site acquisition and entitlements to construction and sales.  Over the years, Scott and his partners have developed dozens of projects and thousands of lots throughout the Midwest and Southeast parts of the country.  In 2006, Scott shifted into the commercial development arena by joining forces with Dan Dykgraaf and Space Source.

In 2007, Scott moved his wife and four kids (all under six years old) to Costa Rica to be the ‘on the ground’ partner for a large condo hotel project.  During their nearly four years in Costa Rica, they helped start a Christian school that is still thriving today.  Scott and his family also spent a few years in Raleigh/Cary, NC before returning home to West Michigan in 2014.

In the past few years, Scott has led the creation and growth of the self storage brand Secure Storage. Along with the two current storage properties in West Michigan, Secure Storage has three locations under construction and three more in the works in Florida and Michigan.  Scott also keeps busy hand-in-hand with the fast growing Tommy’s Car Wash franchise, securing new sites in West Michigan throughout the southeast part of the country.
