Marty Ekster – Director

Moving south was easy for Marty as he found employment in the Golf Resort Industry and soon after became a Head Golf Professional in Myrtle Beach, SC. While serving in this position he experienced the development boom and began his journey into the golf course development and housing development market. For the past 15 years Marty has developed land and golf courses and built quality homes. “In 2000 along with Superior Walls of North Carolina Marty found high quality and highly efficient building techniques using Superior Walls and to this day teams up with their crews to produce uniquely affordable high-end custom homes.”
Bill Beckham – Director
Bill Beckham, a U.S. Citizen with permanent residency in Columbia, S.C., has gained the financial expertise which he now holds through his many years of service to medium and large (domestic and international) corporations. His governmental contract work positions him with the ability to handle negotiations, consultations, estimates, proposals, etc., working on a budgeted grant or private investments. His hands-on experience for maintaining and staying on time for project approvals and completions has been a successful investment of his time. As a needed and sought-after team member, he has been called on to work with “start-up” operational teams – setting up guidelines, audits, banking services, licenses, and other financial management and controls. Working with the owners and other team members of Paradise Cove is proving to be an exciting challenge which calls on all areas of Bill’s work experience.
