Over 50 Years of Combined Experience in Commercial Real Estate
With extensive institutional experience across all facets of commercial real estate, the principals of Fulcrum Real Estate Partners look at deals differently compared to their competition. Our goal is to implement our institutional experience and apply it to smaller transactions in the marketplace. We oftentimes see value where others may not, providing a real arbitrage opportunity for our investors to benefit from our combined 50 years of hands-on knowledge. We consider ourselves problem solvers and pride ourselves on our capability to create value in meaningful ways. We look at each investment as an independent company and will accordingly have a separate and distinct business plan strategy for each acquisition.
