Lyle Anderson, founder and chairman of The Lyle Anderson Company, Inc., is regarded worldwide as an innovator in luxury real estate. In 1981, with the launch of the Desert Highlands community near Phoenix, Lyle introduced the concept of equity membership tied to the purchase of real estate in distinctive private club communities.

The company’s successes feature some of the world’s most storied real estate settings, including Desert Mountain near Scottsdale, Arizona; Hokuli`a on the Kona Coast of the island of Hawai`i, Las Campanas in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and the Loch Lomond Golf Club, nestled on the banks of Loch Lomond in Dunbartonshire, Scotland.

Lyle Anderson acquired the land at the foot of the Superstition Mountains in the early 1990s and then, with the help of his friend and golf legend Jack Nicklaus, built the first of two 18-hole golf courses, Prospector, in 1998. The second course, Lost Gold, followed in 1999.

In fact, Nicklaus is the creative force behind the golf experience at many of the Lyle Anderson properties—places that are characterized by a zeal for quality, respect for the environment, and the promise of excellence for investors who share those same devotions.

“Superstition Mountain was a project that Jack (Nicklaus) and I did with our sons, and it turned out better than I could have envisioned, just a great community.”
