Dave Cavan began developing real estate in Scottsdale more than 50 years ago. More than 100 office, retail and residential projects across five states, and the experience behind The Bungalows™ today.
Cavan spent its first four decades in real estate development, building office, retail and residential projects in Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, California and Nebraska. In 2016 the company turned that experience in land, entitlements, financing and construction to a single product: purpose-built rental communities under The Bungalows brand.
