INVESTMENT STRATEGY

Our acquisition strategy is to acquire class B and C multifamily apartment complexes in emerging markets that include a value- add component. We focus on population and job growth markets where we can reposition the asset through physical and operational improvements.

Our unique ability is identifying and acquiring multifamily assets that have a compelling value add component and can be acquired at an attractive basis relative to competing properties. Our strategy centers on the acquisition, rebranding, and operation of undervalued multifamily properties. We research and uncover properties that are mismanaged, under marketed, and/or poorly maintained. We create value in our projects by rapidly executing renovation plans, driving top line revenue and reducing operating expenses to drive NOI growth, and making existing management more efficient. The result is an asset that quickly increases in value, while also producing a predictable monthly income, as well as favorable tax advantages.
