Leisure Investment Properties Group’s Fall 2026 Golf Industry Update is featured in the October 2026 issue of Pellucid Perspective. In “Buyers Favor Premium, High-Performing Golf Assets: Why—and What Comes Next?” Jim Koppenhaver builds on LIPG’s transaction data to examine buyer demand for private clubs and premium public-access courses. His analysis explores the appeal of dependable dues revenue, strong operating performance and the ability to sustain revenue growth through pricing power.

Acknowledging the limitations and potential higher-value bias in LIPG’s reported transactions, Koppenhaver incorporates additional transaction tracking and Pellucid’s estimates of market supply. His analysis finds that properties valued at $5 million or more account for 39% of reported sales while representing approximately 14% of estimated supply. Looking toward 2027, he outlines three potential outcomes: continued price increases for premium assets, a widening gap between buyer and seller expectations, or increased buyer interest in properties priced between $1 million and $4.99 million.

The article also examines what pursuing those lower-priced opportunities would require, including stronger market screening, deeper due diligence, integrated technology and customer relationship strategies that support retention and organic growth. For owners and investors, the discussion provides perspective on how acquisition strategies may evolve as competition for premium properties continues. We appreciate Jim and the Pellucid team for incorporating LIPG’s research into this analysis. Read the full article below.
