As a kid, Chris Clifford remembers staring at the expansion of the Boulevard Mall and asking his mom if she thought he would ever own a mall. From that moment, Clifford aspired to breathe new life into areas throughout his hometown of Las Vegas.
Clifford has facilitated more than $250 million in buy/sell/lease transactions over the course of his career, including what he considers his most significant business accomplishment: The Village of Centennial Springs. Clifford saw the potential community value of the struggling property and acquired it—against the predicted failure by others—resulting in a 143-unit apartment complex and flourishing retail tenants.
Committed to his community, Clifford regularly meets with local business owners in underserved areas to discuss their needs. He recently donated and funded a $250,000 rehab of the five-acre Pop Squires Park to the City of Las Vegas—a donation felt by the entire nearby family-oriented community.
