The Gilliland Corporation is looking to acquire 3 properties in the distraught town of Westport NY and turn them into a resort whereby many will drive from near and far to enjoy the beauty of Lake Champlain and all it and the area has to offer. There are not many opportunities in which you can acquire such distressed properties – free and clear- with the blessing of the town and state. The Gilliland will take advantage of growing trend away from flying and towards throwing the kids in the car for a road trip. The resort will be able to serve multiple price points and thereby will attract guests from competing resorts ranging 45 minutes to 90 minutes away.

Whether you enjoy golf fishing tennis cross country skiing, tubing, The Gilliland Resort will be the place for your family and because of that returns on this investment will be highly rewarding.
This resort will offer everything and anything ever needed or wanted. There will be a ton of sports oriented activities: Tennis Golf Water Skiing . As well there will be an opportunity for relaxation by the pool or in the spa. Winter sports will include ice fishing, pond hockey, tubing, skiing (White Face 45 min away), snow mobiling.
I started on Wall Street in ’92 on the floor of the NYSE. I eventually became CEO of our family firm, managing a team of 10. Recognizing the limitations, I eventually negotiated the sale of our business to Bear Stearns. I then worked on the equity cash desk at Bear, Merrill and Cowen. I ran teams of various sizes and worked hard to adopt technology to enhance the client experience. . The best part about the street are the people and relationships . I have 24 years of relationships and experience. I intend to take on many projects outside of what you might call my core competency and that because I have been in a niche business and everything is outside of it. However I will take the many of the life lessons over my career and instill them in my new efforts. Passion is what drives me. When I have a vision, there will have to be a very rational reason not to pursue it. “You don’t have any experience in XYZ”. Thats not a reason…that’s an excuse.
