The Miller Organization turned 18 years old today.
18 years ago, I quit my job to start a company.
The company struggled. 0 clients for 6 months.
I could not pay my bills.
I nearly defaulted on my small 3-bedroom condo.
I asked friends to rent empty bedrooms.
They paid $400 per month.
Now, I could pay my mortgage but not much else.
So, I went to the Panda Garden buffet 3X per week.
I snuck zip-lock bags into the buffet.
I scraped General Tso’s off plates into zip-lock bags.
General Tso’s fed my dog, Lucy, & me for days.
I went back to the buffet when I ran out of food.
I stayed hungry.
6 months later, I got 1 client.
I fucking killed for that client.
Then, I got a 2nd client. He owned 4 restaurants.
The Biltmore. The Virginian. West Main. Three.
I fucking killed for him.
Then, he opened Citizen Burger Bar.
I fucking killed for him again.
The word got out. People talked. The phone rang.
Hedge funds. Law firms. Docs. Investors. Buyers. Sellers.
Same plan: show up, work hard, communicate, grind.
DWYGD = Do What You Gotta Do
18 years later, I own 24 rental properties.
That small condo has $0 debt & yields $2500 per month.
My wife and I own a 5-BR home on 4+ acres in Ivy.
Today, The Miller Organization puts deals together.
We solve problems, connect $ & drive market share.
This journey has been the best, hardest thing ever.
It’s been the longest, shortest thing ever.
18 years later, we have 8-year-old & 3-year-old sons.
They make us happy; they drive us crazy.
18 years later, I’m happy - tired - but happy.
If you’ve read this far, leave with this:
Make your passion your profession, and you will never work a day in your life.
This is America. Pick a job and become the person who does it.
Life is a fight for a knife in the mud. Win the fucking fight.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS | JERRY MILLER EXCLUSIVE 🚨
UVA HEALTH PURCHASES FORMER STATE FARM CAMPUS ON PANTOPS FOR $48.3 MILLION — NET COST REDUCED TO $37.7 MILLION!
Multiple sources confirmed to Jerry Miller of The @iLoveCVilleVA Network that UVA Health purchased the former State Farm campus on Pantops.
The transaction represents one of the most consequential commercial real estate acquisitions in the Charlottesville and Albemarle County market.
💰 THE $48.3 MILLION DEAL — AND THE $37.7 MILLION NET PRICE
The gross purchase price was $48.3 million. However, a payment from the previous tenant/lessee to terminate its lease early reduced UVA Health's net purchase price to $37.7 million.
That's a $10.6 million difference between the gross purchase price and UVA Health's reported net acquisition cost.
🏢 THE PROPERTY BY THE NUMBERS
Gross purchase price: $48.3 million
Net purchase price: $37.7 million
Building space: Approximately 365,000 square feet
Campus: Approximately 55 acres
Parking: More than 1,200 spaces
Gross price per square foot: Approximately $132
Net price per square foot: Approximately $103
Location: 1500 State Farm Boulevard, Pantops, Albemarle County
A MAJOR NEW CHAPTER FOR PANTOPS
The former State Farm operations center has been a prominent fixture in eastern Albemarle County for decades. State Farm announced the closure of its local operations center in 2020, leaving the future of this enormous commercial property uncertain.
The campus previously sold in 2014 for a reported $72.9 million, making UVA Health's newly announced acquisition particularly noteworthy.
🏥 WHAT WILL UVA HEALTH DO WITH THE CAMPUS?
UVA Health plans to transform the property into outpatient healthcare facilities, with an anticipated opening around 2028.
The acquisition creates opportunities for expanded patient services, new healthcare employment, and significant redevelopment activity on Pantops.
It also raises important questions about traffic, infrastructure, surrounding businesses and the long-term economic impact on Charlottesville and Albemarle County.
THE BIG QUESTION:
How will UVA Health's acquisition reshape Pantops, and what medical services should be prioritized at the former State Farm campus?
The I Love CVille Network will continue following the redevelopment, future investment, employment opportunities and economic implications of this major transaction.

Lots of new content on the site tonight, including an intriguing story from Tony Elliott's presser today with him explaining why he's not down on Des Kitchings or Beau Pribula and why he's not apt to change or take control as his mentor, Dabo Swinney, did in Saturday's game against the Hokies. We also have a story on Virginia's injury updates _ the Wahoos lost a starting wide receiver for the season _ also a story from Scott German about giving Holstein a shot at QB; a new podcast fresh from today's "Jerry & Jerry Show," where we talked all things Virginia Football; and a couple of shorts on Chance Mallory and Kymora Johnson making national watch lists for point guards and the UVA softball schedule. Check us out. Thousands of Wahoos have made that part of their daily routine.
