About Wheelhouse Commercial Development

We’re in the Business of Building Relationships

Wheelhouse is a commercial development firm built on trust, accountability, and long-term relationships. We create lasting value by aligning our goals with those of our investors, tenants, and communities — doing business the right way, every time.

“We treat every project like it’s our own, because it is.”— Brady Collier & Grant Gafford

Founded on Partnership

Our Story

Wheelhouse was founded on partnership — the kind built on trust, shared vision, and doing the right thing every time. For over a decade, Brady Collier and Grant Gafford have worked side by side, blending complementary strengths and a common belief that great business starts with great relationships.

In 2014, they launched Wheelhouse to bring that same integrity and alignment to commercial development. Their approach is simple: lead with transparency, invest personally, and manage every project as if it were their own. That foundation of partnership and accountability continues to guide Wheelhouse today, shaping how we work, how we build, and how we create value for everyone involved.

Our Culture & Values

At Wheelhouse, we believe culture is more than words — it’s how we show up every day. Our team is built on honesty, hard work, and respect for the people and communities we serve. We take pride in doing things the right way, not the easy way, and in building relationships that last far beyond the projects themselves.

Excellence

Doing your best

Titus 2:7-8
Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works…so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us.

Fun

Making Work Joyful

Proverbs 17:22
A joyful heart is good medicine.

Humility

Thinking of yourself less

Philippians 2:3
Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.

Integrity

Doing what is right

2 Corinthians 8:21
For we are taking pains to do what is right, not only in the eyes of the Lord but also in the eyes of man.

Persistence

Pushing through adversity

James 1:2-3
Consider it pure joy whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.

Teamwork

Collaborating selflessly

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their work…a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

Our Goal

Building brighter Futures

Our goal is to build brighter futures for everyone connected to our work — our clients, tenants, investors, employees, and the communities we serve. Every project we take on reflects our commitment to doing business the right way, creating opportunity, and delivering value that lasts.
