Danny Fitzgerald · intelligence and intuition, balanced
Scaling California land acquisitions for affordable and workforce housing, pushing development efficiency through modular delivery and AI, and doing it from Solana Beach. His own words for the method: balancing intelligence and intuition.
Who he is
The neighbor working the hardest housing problem
Plenty of people talk about the housing crisis; acquisitions is where someone actually has to underwrite it parcel by parcel. Danny's angle is efficiency: modular construction to compress the build, AI to compress the search and diligence. And his tagline, balancing intelligence and intuition, is the same operating thesis SideGuy runs on: the machine holds the data, the human holds the read.
What a SideGuy does for Danny
Where a one-person tech layer fits a land acquisitions pipeline
- The parcel funnel, automated — Screening land is a data problem before it's a deal problem. Zoning layers, ownership, entitlement signals: the sweep a machine should run nightly so the intuition gets better inputs.
- Findable in the capital stack — Cities, capital partners, and landowners all search before they call. A real page for the thesis beats a headline on LinkedIn.
- Intelligence and intuition is the shared thesis — That balance is exactly what SideGuy builds for operators: systems that hold the memory and mechanics so the human read stays sharp.
Danny, you hold the intuition: which parcel, which city, which deal.
SideGuy builds the intelligence side: the sweeps, the pages, the machinery that feeds the read. Same town, same thesis. Solana Beach neighbors.
