Retail

Anchored & Unanchored Centers

Our acquisition strategy focuses on grocery-anchored centers and properties anchored by national or regional credit retailers. We target single-tenant assets, retail portfolios, and opportunities to acquire broken development deals. With a strong emphasis on value creation, we specialize in repositioning underperforming or transitional retail centers to maximize long-term performance and investor returns.

Office

Class B or Better

​Our office acquisition strategy targets Class B or better assets, including both multi-tenant and single-tenant buildings. We actively pursue medical office properties, office parks, and multi-building portfolios in markets with strong economic and demographic fundamentals. Whether stabilized or value-add, we seek assets where strategic leasing, repositioning, or capital improvements can drive long-term performance and portfolio growth.

Industrial

Our industrial acquisition focus includes both single-tenant and multi-tenant properties, as well as portfolios of multiple buildings. We seek assets with excess land that provide future development or expansion potential, and we actively pursue sale/leaseback opportunities with strong credit tenants. Our strategy is centered on acquiring well-located industrial assets with long-term income stability and value-add upside.

Multi-Family

Investing in well-maintained Class C properties in growth is strategic, especially where employment and population are rising. These properties offer stable cash flow at acquisition, enabling value-added opportunities to increase rents, manage expenses, and for maximum returns.
