About Us
We work closely with our local network to find undervalued and underutilized mixed-use and multifamily properties in New York City, with an enhanced focus on specific neighborhoods across Brooklyn. We proceed to unlock value through hands-on operations, construction, and re-leasing efforts.
An integral part of our investment strategy is to be an expert in our sub-market and to develop connections with on-the-ground brokers and local vendors to discover deals rather than relying on traditional, oversaturated channels.
The majority of our acquisitions are completed off-market.
