The Mission:
Pilot Properties aimed to expand their apartment-building business by acquiring land in Rapid City's Big Sky Development. With their busy schedules, they needed Luke’s hustle and innovative approach to get the job done.

With Luke’s help, they overcame obstacles like acquiring additional land and meeting tough regulations. His strategic planning & negotiation skills ensured the project’s success, allowing construction to begin and setting up future wins.
The Impact:
The new development added housing and incredible amenities such as a grocery store, bank, schools, a planned park and even a fire station — boosting Pilot Properties' portfolio and enriching the community.
The Challenge:
They faced hurdles in subdividing land, meeting city regulations and acquiring additional property. These hurdles could have derailed the project, but Luke’s persuasive tactics and skillful deal-brokering secured the win.
Always in the air, so they needed an expert to handle their ground game.
Pilot Properties, run by a group of full-time commercial pilots, had one goal: to grow their apartment-building and leasing business. They wanted to buy land in Rapid City's Big Sky Development to put up a new apartment complex, but with their busy flying schedules, they needed a pro to handle the heavy lifting. They searched for the right expert and found Luke Neely, someone who could bring the energy and innovation they needed.
Now, getting this project off the ground wasn't easy. The land they were eyeing needed to be split into smaller pieces, which meant getting the seller’s agreement and the city’s approval for their building plans. They also had to meet specific rules about how many apartments could be built, with requirements for parking, green spaces, and water management. With a tight deadline to close the deal, Pilot Properties leaned heavily on Luke’s advice and quick thinking to keep things moving.
There may be some bumps ahead.
At one point, it looked like the whole project might fall apart. They realized that more land was needed to make the project financially viable. This was a massive roadblock that could have stopped everything. Fortunately, Luke had the skills to communicate and negotiate effectively. By working closely with the seller and city officials, they managed to extend the property lines, getting the extra space they needed. This move showed Pilot Properties they had the right person leading the charge.
Despite all the challenges, Pilot Properties successfully bought the land and started building their apartments. From their perspective, the strategic planning and negotiation skills of Luke were key to saving the project, setting the stage for future successes. Today, Pilot Properties is thriving and already working on another land purchase with Luke’s help. The community now benefits from new housing with amenities like: a grocery store, bank, schools, plans for a park, and even a fire station. This project’s success speaks for itself, showing how the right guidance can lead to amazing outcomes no matter the challenges.
This is a normal part of flying and nothing to be concerned about.
Through their collaboration with Luke Neely, Pilot Properties turned significant setbacks into a major win. In fact, they didn’t just achieve their business goals; they made a profound impact on the community. The success of this project not only added to their portfolio, but also helped build a stronger, more vibrant community.
