The Meaning of the Name In the Gwich’in Zhee language, Gininlyaa carries a profound weight: 'To Create.' But in the sub-arctic climate of the Alaskan Interior—where the temperature swings 140 degrees and the wind can strip the life from a structure in a single season—creation is a high-stakes endeavor. We believe that in a land this demanding, true creation cannot happen without restoration. You cannot build the future while leaving the wreckage of the past behind.
The Intersection Gininlyaa Property & Asset Solutions was born at the intersection of two distinct, yet inseparable, Alaskan realities: Operational Precision and Ancestral Stewardship.
Operational Precision is the "How." It is the cold, hard logic of the Arctic-Spec exoskeleton, the tactical mastery of the FNSB tax code, and the relentless pursuit of efficiency. It is the machine that Forrest built to ensure that no asset is ever truly "lost," only waiting for the right engineering to be brought back to life.
Ancestral Stewardship is the "Why." It is the Gwich’in Zhee worldview that Devin brings to every boardroom and job site. It is the understanding that we are temporary caretakers of this land, and our buildings must be "Guardians" for the next seven generations. It is the moral obligation to recover the "stranded" equity of our neighbors and return it to the hands of the people.
Our Mission We do not look at a "Zombie" property and see a pile of blight. We see Stranded Relative—a structure that was once a home, a dream, or a retirement fund. By encasing these failing assets in modern SIP technology and protecting them with a 10-year tax shield, we aren't just flipping houses. We are resurrecting the Fairbanks landscape, one structure at a time, ensuring that the wealth created here stays here.
"I saw a landscape littered with 'Zombie' properties—assets that were failing their owners and their neighborhoods. To me, these weren't just eyesores; they were broken systems. My mission is to apply high-performance engineering and tactical financial strategies (like the FNSB Tax Shield) to stop the rot. We don’t just fix houses; we stabilize the future of the Fairbanks grid."

Managing Partner & Operations
As Gwich’in Zhee, we are taught to look seven generations ahead. When I see a burdened property, I see a family’s lost equity and a piece of our community that has been 'stranded.' Gininlyaa is my way of practicing modern stewardship—using our heritage of resilience to ensure that the wealth stayed in the hands of the people and the land stays protected by those who honor it.
