Comments:
**Looking for someone to help improve conditions. This is a property that needs hands-on attention and nurturing and has potential. The golf course is rebuilding its status, payroll budgets are based on current rates/conditions/rounds played. This is a real chance to be an All-Star and grow with company success. Hot months are more demanding on the turf, but rye grass seasons are fantastic.**

Once named Verde Santa Fe it was built in 1997 along with the surrounding housing community (Verde Sant Fe HOA). New owners in 2021 have been breathing life back into the property. Investing in massive Irrigation repair, mainline valves and pump house and purchasing new maintenance equipment. The focus now is to clean up the edges and maintain fun and affordable playing conditions. New owners have recently been approved for the development of 2000 homes across the street scheduled to begin in the next few years. Timeline for golf course improvements align with new home sales soon. Again, an opportunity to truly make your mark.
