Chuck Perry has been involved in the analysis, financing, development and sale of numerous mixed-use residential, resort and commercial projects for almost thirty years. After graduating from Duke University Law School, Chuck practiced law for several years with a downtown Atlanta law firm before he was hired away by a German client who was syndicating U.S. real estate to European investors. Chuck then became involved full time with commercial real estate, first with a local Atlanta firm, then with Landauer Associates, an international real estate counseling and transaction firm headquartered in New York and London.

In the early to mid nineties, Chuck was the first Outback Steakhouse franchisee in northern California and developed the first four Outback's ever opened in that State. After selling the stores and his interest in the management company, Chuck returned to the east coast and resumed his real estate career.

In addition to the selected assignments set forth below, Chuck has developed as principal and managing partner some of the larger mixed-use developments in north Atlanta. He organized the purchase and development of Satellite Place, a 375-acre parcel of land located across from Gwinnett Place Mall in northeast Atlanta, Georgia. The property was purchased for $30 million cash, voted Deal of the Year by the Atlanta Business Chronicle and recognized as the largest commercial real estate land transaction in the history of the State of Georgia. The land portion sold out in two years and the real estate has been valued at $2 billion. Another major mixed-use development where Chuck acted as managing development partner and exclusive marketing advisor was 400 Commons, a 200-acre project along Ga. 400 north of Atlanta. Chuck is presently concluding the development of Longbranch, a 60-acre development with 3,000 feet of frontage along Ga 400, adjacent to the sensitive Chestatee River. Chuck’s involvement in these large developments has given him the experience and background to know first hand the issues that are involved in the entitlement and development process.

Additionally, Chuck has served as the Chairman of the Forsyth County Georgia Board of Appeals and been a member of the Forsyth County Planning Commission. These public service positions came at a time when Forsyth County led the nation in population growth and provide Chuck with an entitlement perspective from the viewpoint of the planning staff and the Commissioners.

Chuck is a member of the Board of Directors of the North American Land Trust, a 501(c)(3) land trust located in Chadds Ford, Pa. The land trust holds conservation easements across the United States and is regarded as the nation's foremost incentive based protector of land.
