The Laramar Group has an established strategy of pursuing value-add investments in multi-family real estate assets on a national basis. Specifically, Laramar seeks to generate superior risk-adjusted returns by investing in discounted assets, management turnaround opportunities, complex financial/operational situations, and assets in need of strategic renovation or rehabilitation.

Laramar and its predecessor have demonstrated the ability to generate attractive returns for their investors through a disciplined approach to acquiring, managing and strategically selling multi-family assets. Laramar's exclusive focus, extensive expertise and standing relationships in the multi-family sector provide an advantage through their superior market knowledge, deal flow and execution.

Pursue Discounted Assets
Laramar focuses on sourcing and acquiring properties at a discount to market value or replacement cost. Laramar pursues market transactions, primarily through an extensive network of relationships.

Seek Management Turnarounds
Ownership of multi-family properties is fragmented, ranging from small individual entrepreneurs who own a single property to large publicly-held REIT's that own hundreds of properties. Given the diversity of ownership, Laramar has historically found, and continues to find, assets that are mismanaged.

Strategically Renovate/Rehabilitate
Laramar identifies properties that are lacking amenities, have poor curb appeal, or suffer from deferred maintenance. Laramar seeks to drive NOI growth through its disciplined approach to capital investment.

Solve Complex Financial and Operational Situations
Laramar targets transactions characterized as complex due to size, capital structure, physical conditions, community dynamics or tax considerations. Such complex situations, although difficult to categorize, are typically multi-disciplined and multi-phased in execution.
