Chappell, who is a LEED certified professional and has years of experience in the sustainable real estate development industry, will deliver a keynote presentation on “How Sustainable Developments Make Greater Financial Sense.”
“Many people are skeptical about investing in green buildings,” said Theddi Wright Chappell, “it is easy to be deterred by upfront costs without considering the great return on investment down the road.”
Sustainable developments should be viewed as attractive investment opportunities because of their minimal upkeep and long term cost savings due to:
• Water Conservation
• Decreased utility bills
• Better air quality
• Energy efficiency
• Reduced maintenance costs
• Extended property lifecycle
Pacific Security Capital develops Cimarron Cove, a community focused on capturing California’s diversity – demographically, architecturally and economically.

Unlike much of the property being developed in the Palm Springs area, Cimarron Cove is designed for mid-income homeowners and targets a very diverse demographic.
“Pacific Security Capital looked at the real needs of a cross section of the community and has addressed those needs with Cimarron Cove,” said Louis Swart, President of Pacific Security Capital. “We are also focused on preserving local roots and this is why we engaged the local builder, GHA Construction.”
Cimarron Cove, which overlooks the Cimarron Golf Course and the Coachella Valley mountains, offers two product types:
• The Heritage Series (1600 – 1900 sq ft)
• The Signature Series (1800 – 2200 sq ft)
Pacific Security Capital is also versatile with its architectural options. Using the same footprint, Pacific Security Capital is able to offer different floor plan combinations (3 bedrooms or 2 master suites) to best suit the homebuyer’s particular lifestyle.
