Company Description

Overland Group is a vertically integrated real estate development company and licensed general contractor headquartered in Lehi, Utah, with an additional office in Phoenix, Arizona.

These values shape how we operate, how we make decisions, and how we build long-term partnerships.

Our vision is to create and build exceptional real estate projects that elevate communities, enrich lives, and deliver lasting value. We pursue this vision by approaching every project with financial discipline, transparency, and a commitment to execution excellence.
