# 🕵️ HOW WE FOUND THE HOUSE — the reasoning trail, for G-Pops *v1 · 2026-08-10 · companion to the Family Governance Pitch (v2.2) · from Jordan (Shaka), drafted by Admiral 🫡 with Spector 🕵️'s public-records work* *Status: DRAFT — Jordan edits/blesses/sends. Every fact below is from PUBLIC records (CO Secretary of State, statewide parcel service, Arapahoe County Clerk & Recorder, press). No private data was touched.* --- Dad — You asked for governance. Before the structure, I want to show you *how we found you* — because the night we pulled the public record is the night this whole plan stopped being my idea and became the family's. It took my agent Spector about **seven minutes**. Here's the trail, exactly as it unfolded, dead ends and all. ## Step 1 · A misspelled name and a hunch It started with me asking Spector: *"Find a property my dad owns with Deo Valente."* I couldn't even spell your Latin. Spector checked all **73 VALENTE-owned parcels** in Colorado — no "Dale Valente" exists. No CO entity has an agent named Dale Valente. Dead end — but the *sound* of the name was the clue. ## Step 2 · Deo Volente Corporation — and a surprise Sounding it out led to the real thing: **Deo Volente Corporation**, registered agent **Gregory B. Ham**, formed **November 20, 2014** at the family address (‹ADDRESS-REDACTED›, Englewood). And then the record said something I didn't expect: **voluntarily dissolved January 26, 2025.** For a moment that looked like an ending. The family company — gone. But you'd taught me better than to stop at the first document, and honestly, the dissolution read *too clean* — voluntary, orderly, deliberate. Builders like you don't abandon houses. They **move.** ## Step 3 · The same address tells on you (lovingly) So Spector pulled every Colorado entity registered to Gregory Ham at that address, and the whole architecture lit up like a constellation: - **Terra West, LLC** — 2009, good standing (holding the Grand County mountain land) - **Kohala Rental LLC** · **Malukai LLC** — 2020 - **Deo Donum LLC** — formed **October 2, 2020** - **Kings Plaza LLC** — 2021 - **Printers Parkway Partners, LLC** — 2018 (the Colorado Springs medical office — sold July 2020 for \$4.845M, and the broker on record was **Brent** 😎) - and one more, quietly sitting at the bottom of the list: **DV Software LLC** — formed **September 2025** One clean entity per purpose. Never mixing risk. We could *see* the discipline in the filing dates. ## Step 4 · Deo Donum — "gift of God" — and the 24-day tell **Deo Donum LLC** — Latin for *gift of God*, the sister phrase to *Deo Volente* ("God willing") — was formed **October 2, 2020**. **Twenty-four days later**, on **October 26, 2020**, it closed on **‹ADDRESS-REDACTED›, Centennial** — the Crash Champions building (Sterling Auto Body → Service King → Crash Champions, one unbroken chain of national tenants) — for **‹PRICE-REDACTED›**, financed through Fortis Private Bank. Form the vessel, then fill it. The county appraises that building at **‹PRICE-REDACTED› today — +22.5%** on your watch. The Arapahoe recorder has **zero** documents under "Deo Volente" and **five** under "Deo Donum" — all tying to this one property. The trail doesn't get cleaner than that. ## Step 5 · The one that made me sit down: DV Software LLC And then the last line of the entity list. **DV Software LLC. Formed September 2025. In good standing today.** Eight months *after* Deo Volente Corporation dissolved. Dad — a *software* company. Carrying the Deo Volente initials. Standing **empty and ready** — formed a year before your son showed up with a software company that needed a house. That's the moment I said it out loud to the Admiral: **you're a genius.** You set the table before any of us knew we were cooking. You wound down one entity with clean hands, kept the name's initials warm, and pointed the family name at *software* — the exact thing your son was building — before I ever asked. ## What the trail taught us (and why it's now the plan) 1. **One entity per purpose, never mixing risk** — your discipline, adopted verbatim. That's why the Jeremy round's money will land in a *fresh* Delaware C-Corp products vessel, not inside DV Software (see the Governance Pitch, "Vehicle & Vessel"). 2. **Terra West stays asset-side** — your own pattern, respected. 3. **Every family document closes "Deo Volente — God willing" (James 4:15)** — because the name you chose turned out to be the plan itself. We didn't find a loophole, Dad. We found a **foundation you already poured**. The pitch isn't asking you to build the house — it's asking you to open the door and chair what grows inside it. *Deo Volente — God willing.* — Jordan --- ### Source record (all public) - CO Secretary of State entity records — Deo Volente Corporation (ID 20141703393, dissolved 1/26/2025) · Deo Donum LLC (formed 10/2/2020) · DV Software LLC (formed 9/2025, good standing) · Terra West LLC (2009) · Kings Plaza LLC · Malukai LLC · Kohala Rental LLC · Printers Parkway Partners LLC - Colorado statewide parcel service (gis.colorado.gov) + Arapahoe County Clerk & Recorder — ‹ADDRESS-REDACTED›, parcel ‹REDACTED›, deed reception ‹REDACTED› (10/26/2020, ‹PRICE-REDACTED›), Fortis Private Bank deed of trust ‹RECORDING-NOS-REDACTED› - Full technical report with links: [OWNER-LOOKUP-REPORT.md](/shared/realestate/owner-lookup-dale-valente/OWNER-LOOKUP-REPORT.md) (Spector 🕵️, 2026-08-10) - Dead ends checked so no one else has to: "Dale Valente" (doesn't exist in CO records) · "Deo Valente" exact (unrelated delinquent 2010 LLC) · "Deo Volente" real property (only a Durango parcel, unrelated) *Not legal advice — CPA/attorney review before any signing.

The facts are public record, but aggregating them onto a served page is a publication act, and consent comes before permanence. **Whereabouts only were removed; nothing else was changed and the page was not taken down.** The unredacted text is retained at its source for whoever is blessed to send it, so this is fully reversible. Wayback held 0 captures when this was done. > 🔒 **Follow-up 2026-10-13 by CROPS 🌿, after Privy 🔒 audited my own redaction and found residue.** Two **deed-of-trust recording numbers** survived my first pass: a recording number is an index into the county Clerk's instrument, so it re-derives by lookup exactly what I had just removed. My residue check tested *whereabouts* shapes, and a recording number is not whereabouts-shaped — the same mistake, one class over. Also relabelled: my `‹HOME-ADDRESS-REDACTED›` marker had been applied to a **commercial** building too, so the markers now make no claim about which address they replaced. **What is protected here is an IDENTIFIER SET, not a pattern class.**
