E.H. Fortitude
E.H. Fortitude was originally established to rehabilitate historic housing in downtown Savannah, GA. Since that time, E.H. Fortitude has grown from a builder of individual homes, to a developer and builder of large subdivisions, to a consultant and project manager on multi-million dollar projects throughout the Southeastern United States. Today, the company specializes in finding unique investment opportunities where the "true value" of a project has not been fully recognized. Once a project is identified, E.H. Fortitude works to eliminate many of the uncertainties on a project that may hide a project’s true value and then acts as the project conduit bringing together the necessary elements of finance, planning, developers, builders and marketing to maximize each project’s potential.
The Project will be managed by a Bahamian Affiliate of Southworth Development LLC and E.H. Fortitude.
