Data Center Site Consulting
Genesee Data Properties helps municipalities, counties, and economic development authorities attract, evaluate, and negotiate data center investment — on your terms.
Begin a ConversationThe data center economy is reshaping communities across the country — generating tax revenue, utility income, and long-term infrastructure investment at a scale few other industries can match. But the deals that make that possible are complex, moving fast, and written in the language of hyperscale developers, not local government.
Genesee Data Properties was founded to close that gap. We bring commercial real estate expertise and economic development strategy to bear on one clear objective: ensuring that when a data center developer looks at your market, you are ready — and that when a deal is on the table, you negotiate it well.
Local governments evaluating data center proposals or looking to proactively attract investment. We help you understand what you're being offered — and what to ask for.
EDAs charged with diversifying their local tax base and creating durable economic activity. We provide the market intelligence and deal expertise to compete for the right tenants.
Councils of government and regional bodies thinking about long-term infrastructure corridors, energy planning, and the cumulative impact of large-scale data center development.
Commerce and economic development offices working to attract hyperscale investment at scale. We can provide site-level analysis and developer-facing strategy to support state initiatives.
Genesee Data Properties works with a focused roster of clients. That is a deliberate choice — not a constraint. Each engagement receives the attention and accountability it warrants, and we do not take work we cannot do well.
Engagements are scoped at the outset and structured to reflect your timeline, your team, and your goals. We work alongside your existing staff and legal counsel rather than around them.
Direct access to a principal with deep commercial real estate and economic development expertise — not a junior team. Clear deliverables. Honest assessments. And the market relationships that only come from years of doing this work.
We serve communities that are serious about where they are going.
Genesee Data Properties was founded by a commercial real estate professional with more than a decade of experience in the industry. The firm emerged from a straightforward observation: the municipalities best positioned to attract data center investment are the ones that understand how developers think — and most don't have that expertise in-house.
With a background spanning site analysis, financial modeling, and transaction advisory, GDP's founder brings the technical fluency of a commercial real estate professional to engagements that are fundamentally about serving the public interest.
The firm serves clients nationwide, with a particular focus on the Michigan region.
The right data center deal doesn't happen by accident — it's the product of deliberate positioning, honest site analysis, and relationships built before a developer is at your door.
If your community is ready for that conversation, this is where it starts.
