We treat your land like the legacy it is — and work with you to unlock its full potential, without the long-term restrictions or rigid contracts that most developers impose.
Landowners We've Partnered With
Glenmar Ranches
Glenmar Ranches is a 56-lot custom home community in Eagle Mountain, Utah, developed in partnership with a landowner who prioritized conservation. McCleery Company managed the entitlement and development of 33 one-acre lots, while assisting a neighboring developer with 23 additional lots, all while preserving a large portion of the land as a wildlife preserve with trails throughout.
Bell View
Bellview is an 8-lot subdivision in Woodland Hills, Utah, where McCleery Company assisted a landowner who faced challenges obtaining city approval for her 6-lot plan. By securing final plat approval, reconfiguring the layout to add two additional lots, and saving $600K in development costs, we helped increase the landowner's total value by over $1.5 million.
The View
The View is a 255-key condo-hotel development in Heber, Utah, designed to support the area's transformation into a resort destination. McCleery Company partnered with landowners from both phases to navigate entitlements and approvals, positioning the project for sale to a hotel developer.
24th Street
24th Street is a 21-unit mixed-use development in West Ogden, Utah, featuring commercial space on the ground floor and residential units above. McCleery Company partnered with the landowner to transform a one-acre rental property into a vibrant live-work community, strategically positioned near a new interchange.
Sand Hollow
Sand Hollow is a master-planned community in Hurricane, Utah, where McCleery Company collaborated with landowners and neighbors to create a unified development strategy. By aligning their goals and resources, we streamlined the planning process, resulting in significant time and cost savings for all parties involved.
Elk Point
Elk Point Development in Woodland Hills, Utah, involved McCleery Company assisting a landowner who struggled to obtain city approval to subdivide their property into two 2-acre lots. Through detailed research and multiple meetings with city officials, we secured the necessary approvals, that provided the landowner with the flexibility to sell or build on the new lots.
Bella Vista
Bella Vista in Santaquin, Utah, involved McCleery Company stepping in after a developer and investor overpromised and underdelivered, leaving the landowner in a difficult position. We navigated challenges including utility capacity, community sentiment, water availability, and easement issues, ultimately using our Naxxa software to find a suitable buyer for the project.
Ward Ranch
Ward Ranch in South Jordan, Utah, involved McCleery Company assisting a builder seeking a swift exit from a challenging property situation. Utilizing our Naxxa software, we secured a buyer and completed the transaction within two weeks, enabling the builder to move on financially and providing the new buyer with a promising investment opportunity.

Steve McCleery | CEO, McCleery Company
From Developer to Disruptor
Steve McCleery didn’t grow up in real estate. He started in tech — working at an AI firm with no kids, no real estate experience, and a growing sense he was made for something more.
So he left it behind.
What followed was years of rejection, financial strain, and pure grit. Steve offered to work for free. Studied until 2 a.m. Knocked doors. Got flooded out of his own home. But when he stopped chasing deals and started serving people first, things changed.
"Life isn’t business. It’s always personal. That’s the only way we operate."
Steve built McCleery Company by helping landowners no one else would touch and solving problems others avoided. That same mentality now powers Naxxa.
Even if it's just to introduce yourself, feel free to drop him a line.
