About Thousand Hills Company
Thousand Hills Company is a real estate operator headquartered in Chattanooga, TN.
Thousand Hills Company is a real estate development firm based in Chattanooga, Tennessee. It specializes in developing residential land, conservation, and commercial projects throughout the Greater Chattanooga Region. The firm’s leadership includes real estate veteran Jim Lea, active in the area since 2002, when he launched The Lea Team. In 2005, he co‑founded a local Keller Williams franchise that grew into the region’s top real estate presence. The company has delivered or collaborated on numerous projects, including: growing GreenTech Homes from 20 homes per year to over 100 homes per year; residential communities such as Madison Park, Jefferson Heights, North Point Ridge, Millstone Cottages, Providence Landing, and Stonegate; a mixed‑use project named One Hundred at South Broad; a 50‑acre land conservation project called Hawkins Ridge; and townhome and other residential developments across Chattanooga and its suburbs. The other key figure, Sheldon Grizzle, spearheaded a 16,000 sq ft mixed‑use redevelopment in Chattanooga’s Southside and was founding president of Highland Park Commons. He remains active in regional real estate and community development. The company’s process involves partnering with landowners and investors, then overseeing due diligence, site preparation, infrastructure, amenities, and pre‑sales to builders, with the aim of long-term stewardship and community building.
