Our Typical Investment Criteria
While we are constantly reviewing new investment opportunities, the following two strategies are currently our most common target acquisitions :
Multifamily Communities
Multifamily workforce housing with upside potential – Buildings with 5 units or more are appraised based upon their profitability (Net Operating Income) instead of sales comps. This provides an amazing opportunity for us to “force appreciation” by cutting operational expenses and often improving the finishes within the property, directly leading to an increase in appraised value. This not only strengthens our cash flows but provides an opportunity to refinance our capital back out for use in the next real estate investment.
Rehabilitation And Positioning
Low cost 1-4 unit workforce housing cash purchases – We typically find small 1-4 unit deals off-market or through pocket listings within our agent network. Due to the fact that they are often too small to finance with a conventional mortgage or are otherwise discounted due to their condition or the seller’s desire for a quick sale, we pay cash or obtain seller financing for these deals. However, they have immediate equity wrapped into them so once we build a portfolio of these properties in a given geography we are able to refinance them with a blanket mortgage to repurpose the capital for the next investment.

Why Invest with us
230 Rental Units
We have invested significant amounts of personal capital, resulting in the acquisition of ~230 rental units using our own capital before opening up to investor capital. As a result of starting Breeze Property Group with limited capital, we needed to develop an investment philosophy that stretches the dollar. Our investment screener and operating model are reflective of that goal.
Track Record
We advised over 30 Fortune 500 companies with operations, growth, and cost reduction efforts during our time in the corporate world. Since starting Breeze Property Group we have conducted over 30 rehabs, repositioned the majority of the properties we acquired, and developed processes and systems that exceed those of most of our middle-market competitors.
Recession Resilience
While we agree with investor sentiment that a recession may be around the corner, we acquire recession-resilient investment properties. First, we believe that residents of Class A properties will bear the majority of the recession damage while people looking to save money will shift toward our workforce housing investments. Second, we maintain much ... higher debt service coverage ratios (DSCRs) than are possible with Class A properties. Our typical debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) is above 3.0, whereas the typical mortgage lender only requires a DSCR of 1.2. Read more
