In this episode of Smith Lane, we sit down with Grady Miars, the President and Chief Operating Officer of GreenPointe Holdings LLC, for a deep dive into his career journey and the GreenPointe vision behind creating authentic and successful master-planned communities.

Grady reveals how the company’s motto—be reliable, predictable, and prepared—guides their work, fostering a culture that attracts builders and a loyal workforce. Grady and Monaca bond over their shared leadership approach, which pushes themselves and their teams out of their comfort zone while creating a supportive space for growth.

The conversation delves into the ever-changing landscape of Florida real estate following an influx of homebuyers during COVID-19. To sustain this population, Grady reflects on the importance of not just offering attractive amenities but also creating environments and cultures that people genuinely want to be a part of.

Grady also shares insights on the Treasure Cay Project, GreenPointe’s standout initiative aimed at revitalizing Abacos Island in the Bahamas following the devastation of Hurricane Dorian. We discuss how they are working to create an authentic community that honors the area’s history while also considering future residents. Grady highlights GreenPointe’s commitment to hiring Bahamian consultants for the project and explains how maintaining a strong, supportive culture will be crucial to the success of their large-scale international efforts. With a focus on people and place, Grady underscores the significance of building developments that are not only profitable but also purposeful.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation on how intentionality in development can make a lasting, positive impact.
