Lake Havasu City, Arizona--(Newsfile Corp. - September 1, 2026) - Paradyme Companies, a vertically integrated real estate investment, development and finance firm led by Founder and Chairman Ryan J. Garland, is expanding Barn Caves - its residential development model combining three-story homes with oversized garages built for boats, RVs and other recreational vehicles - beyond Arizona into additional recreational markets across the United States. The company is using its flagship Lake Havasu City community, now under construction, as the prototype for the rollout.

The expansion strategy centers on secondary recreational markets where boat, RV and powersports ownership is concentrated. Paradyme has named the Ozarks region and the Nashville market - where the company relocated its headquarters in 2022 - among the areas it is evaluating for the model, alongside additional Sun Belt and lake-community markets.

"We like recreational environments that also have healthcare baked in or as a force in the town we are choosing to develop," Garland said.

Paradyme has said the units are designed for owners of boats, RVs, off-road vehicles and similar equipment that does not fit a conventional residential garage. Ground-floor bays are sized by depth and door clearance rather than by vehicle count, and the four available floor plans allow that space to be configured for storage, workshop or recreational use.

Paradyme closed Phase One of Barn Caves in July 2024, completing land acquisition and initial funding for permitting and horizontal work across 18 acres in north Lake Havasu City. The company broke ground on the site at 40 Retail Centre Blvd. in April 2025. At completion, the community is planned to include approximately 97 residences across four floor plans ranging from 2,200 to 3,300 square feet, each pairing two stories of residential space with a ground-floor garage sized for recreational equipment.

The site sits adjacent to Paradyme's 225,000-square-foot luxury boat and RV storage development, and the surrounding footprint includes Paradyme Flats, Paradyme Storage and Boat House Storage. A members-only wellness facility exceeding 30,000 square feet, with a resort-inspired pool and pickleball courts, is planned as part of the community.

To make the model transferable to other markets, Paradyme has moved toward prefabricated construction and standardized logistics intended to shorten build timelines on future sites. The company has also established a general contractor training program to prepare builders in new markets to deliver the product to specification, and is incorporating solar energy into the design.

Paradyme operates as a vertically integrated platform, handling lending, acquisition, development and construction in-house - a structure the company says allows it to move on new sites without assembling a separate partner group in each market.

Across its broader platform, Paradyme reports approximately $3 billion in development activity and manages a roughly $100 million debt fund serving developers and real estate operators. Garland built much of his career working with distressed residential and commercial assets during and after the 2008 financial crisis.

"You must be able to pivot with the market," Garland said. "You must be able to identify demand and investor appetites. You also have to identify ways to create less risk in this environment."

Additional market announcements are expected as sites are secured.
