Experience Matters

A Proven History of Success

Our track record of delivering value through targeted financial expertise and analytics, execution of complex mergers and acquisitions, recapitalizations and other financial transactions began with our predecessor company, founded as a private enterprise in 1990. The company became a leading global real estate services company listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and ultimately was combined with CB Richard Ellis to form one of the nation’s largest commercial real estate services companies at the time. We pride ourselves on our proven ability to combine the highest levels of financial and real estate expertise with true operating experience. With a reputation for thriving in disrupted markets and in situations with high degrees of complexity, we are nimble and opportunistic investors. This formula has enabled us to work with a diverse group of partners to successfully pursue unique opportunities that others often do not often see.
