Revitalizing a Las Vegas Icon
Roland Sansone and the Sansone team transformed one of the largest 1.2 million square foot regional shopping center on 75 acres in the State of Nevada the Boulevard Mall. After five long years of renovation and re-tenting, the Sansone team moved on from the property and let someone else continue the vision.
A declining shopping center with approximately 50% of its tenant vacating the property. Through creative vision, strategic tenant selection, and aesthetic enhancements, the Sansone team, led by Roland, Devon, Miles Neil Sansone, and team, restored the beloved landmark, to approximately 90% occupancy and into a vibrant destination for shopping, dining, and culture—bringing renewed life to a key corridor of the city. This corridor of the Las Vegas Valley has, HCA Sunrise and children’s Hospital, the Las Vegas Convention center, Las Vegas country club, and the University of Las Vegas UNLV.

Roland Sansone Developer Success Tips
With over 45 years of experience, Roland Sansone has Red developed and developed projects of all sizes across commercial and residential sectors. A former Clark County Planning Commissioner, Roland is often asked for advice by aspiring developers. Here are some of his most impactful ideas and suggestions, for real estate development success:
1. Great developers see possibilities where others don’t. Look ahead to the future needs of the current market absorption needs, your community—families, businesses—and offer solutions that set your projects apart. Use the latest building design and materials. Embrace new and bold designs. Think about how the concept enhances both functionality and visual appeal for your customers and your community.
2. Take Smart Risks
Successful developers take calculated, well-researched risks. Study the economy’s direction and needs, pros and cons for a particular use, whether commercial warehouse’s, office, retail, multifamily, self storage or other use. Verify your pro forma, the financial reports that predict a specific use’s future financial performance based on hypothetical scenarios, assumptions of market rents, and future projections.
Those who never take a calculated leap often never move forward.
3. Solve Problems Daily
Every day brings new challenges. Stay calm, stay positive, and trust your team. Great developers know there’s always more than one way to solve a problem—and they find the best one.
4. Build Lasting Relationships
In commercial development and leasing, relationships are everything. Sansone has maintained strong partnerships across industries for decades by treating all people with respect and sincerity. Take the time to acknowledge others. Give back. When you support others, they’ll support you in return.
Advice for Aspiring Developers
If you’re new to property development, here are five powerful lessons Roland Sansone and the Sansone team wishes every developer knew from the start:
1. Engineers and Architects Don’t Always Share Your Vision
Even experts may not fully grasp your goals or budget. A bad concept or design can cost you time and money—so be hands-on and detailed-focused early in the design process in the interest of your customers, project and community.
2. Ask for What You Need
Don’t be afraid to request for reasonable waivers or approvals from agencies, when it is in the interest of the project, customers and the community. You’ll be surprised at what’s possible when you simply ask.
3. Hold Contractors and Subcontractors Accountable
Your contractor who is overseeing implementing your engineers plans and managing subcontractors, and their implementation of construction and timeline may not align with your vision. Monitor the weekly progress. Don’t hesitate to speak up and follow it up in writing. Preventing issues in advance, is far better than resolving legal disputes later.
4. It’s Never Too Late to Improve
Sometimes, the best change happens at the 11th hour. If you catch a mistake late, don’t be afraid to fix it—even if it causes a delay. It could be the difference between a good project and a great one.
5. Avoid Over-Leveraging
The Great Recession taught many developers the risks of excessive borrowing. Always plan to cover your loan obligations—even if rental rates and income drop. A conservative approach protects your investment and your future.
