Anderson Development Team Memebers

Gerald Anderson
Principal
On his way to and from work each day, Gerald drove by a 10 acre piece of property in Sandy, Utah, that he knew several builders had put under contract, but gave up quickly when they found out all of the inherent problems. Gerald knew that the property would be a great home development if someone would just work with the city long enough to resolve the obstacles. Gerald purchased the property and took the time to work though the issues and was able to get the property zoned and platted. He then sold the property to a builder who was happy to pay a little more for a property ready to build. This first project was in 1989, and the company has grown exponentially since that date. From there Gerald purchased additional properties that others had ignored because of difficult municipalities, wetlands, and easements etc., and created a company that would take these raw pieces of land and prepare them for a vertical builder to purchase with zoning and entitlements in place. Since 1990, Anderson Development has specialized in assembling large tracts of property, then zoning, subdividing & platting the properties to their highest & best use.

Anderson Development sells this 'difficult dirt' to vertical builders, developers and end users. While working on one of these projects, Gerald became acquainted with Michael Hutchings, who at the time was a Utah Third District Court Judge. Soon after, Mike was working with Gerald to resolve various entitlement issues. With Gerald's business acumen and Mike's legal background, Anderson Development was ready for larger scale projects. Today Gerald is actively involved in the company's management, strategies, project direction, acquisitions, sales, and funding.
