Focused and Strategic
Focused and Strategic
Focused and Strategic
We believe in a targeted, strategic approach rather than spreading our efforts too thin. By concentrating on Class B multifamily assets within a 75-mile radius of Indianapolis, we leverage deep local market knowledge and achieve economies of scale with manpower, supplies, and other resources. We avoid large renovation projects, knowing they often go over budget and take more time than planned. Instead, we hone in on value-add operational plays, specifically targeting the worst operators in the best markets. This narrow focus allows us to maximize equity creation through carefully selected acquisitions and property improvements, ensuring sustainable growth and value for our investors.
