Acquisition Strategy

Our value-added investment strategy is centered on the acquisitions of underperforming multi-family assets in carefully targeted markets that are relatively supply constrained. These assets exhibit attractive near-term potential for improving rents and property values through active property renovation and repositioning.

We also search for distressed sale scenarios that offer significant opportunistic investing value.  All investments are originated, financed, and repositioned using the operating company infrastructure of Su Casa Investments, LLC (SCI).

In applying this focused strategy to targeting potential properties for acquisition, our expertise yields considerable competitive advantages:


  • Access to property: SCI’s active presence in the national real estate arena and relations with local and institutional owners provides access to investment opportunities not ordinarily available to most investors.

  • Brokerage Presence: SCI has an existing Brokerage & Management Network involved in most of the targeted Western States markets, a critical asset in the search for quality opportunities.

  • Access to Capital Markets: SCI has very deep access to the capital markets - pivotal in obtaining competitive financing terms both on acquisition and/or refinancing –to maximize investor returns.

  • Leverage: SCI uses high leverage (80% – 90%) financing for acquisitions to gain enhanced returns on equity.  Our aim is to acquire properties where the NOI growth will support financing out all (or substantially) all of its equity within three to five years.

  • Replacement Cost: SCI acquires these properties at a substantial discount to replacement cost.
