Sohr like an eagle

Scott Sohr's Elmington Homes has "revived" a Knoxville-area luxury subdivision. Wellington Chase will rise just north of Interstate 40 in west Knox County and will be built by Knoxville-based McCamy Construction.

“Wellington Chase is an ideal environment for new families and empty nesters alike,” said Elmington Homes founder Scott Sohr, who was struck by the natural beauty of the Hardin Valley property. “The surrounding views of the Smokey Mountains, and the broad availability of nearby amenities and quality schools, make Wellington Chase a highly appealing community.”

The Shops at Turkey Creek, a bustling retail development considered a premier shopping destination for Knoxville residents, is just 5-10 minutes from Wellington Chase. The neighborhood is located in the Hardin Valley school district, one of the top school districts in Knox county, and less than 15 minutes from local recreational activities and Pelissippi State Community College.

“The completion of a residential area like Wellington Chase is another good sign Knox County real estate is coming out of the economic downturn,” stated Sam McCamy, chief manager of McCamy Construction. “We’re honored to be a partner in the development and look forward to completing these homes.”

Still a Sohr subject

In what must have been an adroit feat of investment banking diplomacy, Boston's Provident Healthcare Partners has closed a recapitalization deal for Correct Care Solutions, the Nashville-based prison health care provider jointly owned by Preston Ingram and Scott Sohr. Audax Group, also based in Boston, is the source of the recap funding. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Entrepreneurs Sohr and Ingram, you may recall, are embroiled in litigation at Davidson Chancery over the fallout from a soured homebuilding venture that left them on the hook together for $100 million in debt. One of Ingram's claims is that Sohr should have to undo the 2007 transfer of $17 million worth of Correct Care stock to a personal trust. Asked whether a settlement made the deal possible, Ingram attorney Gino Bulso of Leader, Bulso, Nolan & Burnstein responded: "The sale does not represent a resolution of any of the claims pending before Chancellor McCoy." Scott Sims of Walker, Tipps & Malone, representing Sohr, concurred with that assessment.
