Donna Ransom

As Tower Capital’s Senior Transaction Manager, Donna Ransom brings more than three decades of experience in land banking, homebuilding acquisition, commercial project management, and master planned community land development to the company. During her time with the Arizona-based private real estate capital advisory firm, she has facilitated more than $2 billion in transactional activity. She played an integral role in developing Tower Capital’s transaction processing handbook that has driven efficient and smoother closings of financing executions, resulting in reduced risk for all involved and solidifying long-term, trusted relationships with clients.

Before joining Tower Capital in 2017, Ransom spent four years at CDCG Asset Management, LLC, managing entitlements, development, and lot disposition for its nearly $1.5 billion land bank investments. She also worked as a senior project manager at Evergreen Devco, where she managed the development of multiple neighborhood market stores, including entitlements, due diligence, design, permitting and budgeting on behalf of Fresh & Easy in Southern California.

Ransom has also been involved in Phoenix-area community organizations, including serving as a Girl Scout Troop Leader, band booster, and band board member at her children’s high school.

These are a few reasons Donna Ransom is among the Phoenix & Southwest Connect CRE 2024 Women in Real Estate Award winners. Connect CRE’s Women in Real Estate Awards honor the achievements and inspirational stories of women who have reached respected leadership positions and taken on mentorship roles.
