120-Unit Residential Community | Full Site Development & Entitlement
Overview
Cablik Site Development undertook a full-cycle residential development project in Northwest Georgia, transforming raw land into a fully entitled, infrastructure-ready townhome community. Unlike a traditional contractor role, Cablik purchased the property, managed entitlement and permitting, completed full site development, and successfully positioned the project for sale to a national homebuilder.
The result: a 120-unit townhome development delivered from concept to construction-ready with precision, speed, and total control.
The Challenge
The property required a comprehensive development approach:
- No existing entitlements
- Full permitting and zoning approvals needed
- Complete site infrastructure required before vertical construction
- Strategic positioning to attract top-tier national builders
The goal was not just to develop the site—but to maximize its value prior to sale.
The Strategy
Cablik Site Development took a developer-first approach:
1. Property Acquisition & Vision
Cablik purchased the property directly, allowing full control over entitlement strategy, design intent, and long-term value.
2. Entitlement & Permitting
- Navigated local permitting processes
- Secured approvals for 120 townhomes
- Coordinated planning, zoning, and municipal requirements
3. Builder Selection Process
- Solicited offers from NVR Ryan Homes and four additional builders
- Evaluated proposals based on execution capability, scale, and long-term alignment
- Selected NVR Ryan Homes as the buyer and vertical construction partner
Execution
Once permits were secured, Cablik executed complete site development, including:
- Land clearing and grading
- Stormwater management systems
- Sanitary sewer installation
- Water distribution and fire protection systems
- Fire hydrants and fire infrastructure
- Road construction, curbs, gutters, and sidewalks
- Storm pond construction
- Retaining walls and community walls
- Mailbox installations
- Street layout, naming, and signage
- Utility tie-ins:
- Municipal water system
- Storm system
- Sewer system
- Fiber internet installation via AT&T
- Final tie-in to existing public roadways
Every phase was managed internally to ensure quality, compliance, and timeline control.
Results
- 120 fully entitled townhomes approved
- National builder secured (NVR Ryan Homes)
- Construction-ready site delivered
- Seamless transition from raw land to vertical development
- Significant value creation prior to sale
This project stands as a textbook example of Cablik’s ability to bridge the gap between land acquisition and vertical construction.
Why This Project Matters
This development highlights what sets Cablik Site Development apart:
- Developer mindset, not just contractor execution
- Proven ability to entitle, build, and exit strategically
- Deep experience coordinating utilities, municipalities, and national builders
- Turnkey site development that reduces risk for builders and investors
