Prior to establishing GCP, Spessard spent 13 years as one of two owners of Asset Plus Corp. and Asset Campus Housing, two Houston-based property investment, development, and management firm operating on a national basis. As CEO, he led the principal investment and development activities of the company, and closely focused on sourcing transactions as well as debt and equity capital for these projects. During his tenure, he was instrumental in the company’s transformation from being a local third party property management firm into a regional investment, development, and management concern with over 800 employees. Asset Campus Housing ultimately grew its portfolio to over 50,000 beds under management at college campuses across the country. This company became one of the largest student housing firms in the nation. Spessard sold his interests in both companies in September of 2008.

Successful investments included multifamily, student housing, office, and medical office assets with excellent returns achieved in a variety of acquisitions and developments through multiple business / real estate cycles. Since 1995 Spessard has been actively acquiring or developing assets in partnership with large private corporations, life insurance companies, investment funds, pension funds, and high net individual investors. In that time, he has personally invested in over 40 significant properties located in 24 cities in nine states comprising over $600 million in value. In his 30-year career, he has completed transactions totaling over $900 million.
