Among its bona fides, Penrose says it was at one time the largest owner of contiguous land in the DC metro area. It has been involved in several deals in this region, including the master-planned, mixed-use community King Farm in Rockville. Starwood Land Ventures, for its part, has been active in partner outreach over the past several months. In June, it formed a JV with Riverway Properties, a Houston-based residential community developer, through which $150 million will be invested locally. According to a statement by Mike Moser, East Region president of Starwood Land Ventures, the JV has already begun evaluating projects.

He has been tasked with building Starwood Land's team in Phoenix and establishing JVs in the Las Vegas and Denver markets.
