Why Jacksonville

Demand from jobs that have to be done in person.

Jacksonville has major hospitals, a working port, two Navy bases and a metro that keeps adding residents, with no state income tax and housing priced below Florida's other big metros. AI is automating screen-based work first, but these jobs are done on site, so the people doing them need somewhere close by to live and work.

What we buy

Housing for the workforce. Space for the work.

Rentals near the big employers, plus the small-bay industrial, contractor yards and medical outpatient space that hands-on work needs. The white paper sets out the evidence, the risks and how we underwrite.

How it works

It starts with a conversation.

Book an intro call

A short call with Mike about the strategy, how deals are structured and what you're looking for. It commits you to nothing.

Verify and review a deal

Before any offering we verify that you're an accredited investor. Then you get the offering documents for a specific Jacksonville property.

Invest and get reports

You commit only through the offering documents, then get regular reports on rent, occupancy and repairs.

How we invest

One property per deal

No blind pool. You see the address, the underwriting, the risks and the plan, and decide property by property.

Underwritten on today's rents

Every deal has to work on current rents and current employers, stress-tested for higher rates and vacancy.

One market, founder-led

Jacksonville only, and you deal with Mike directly. Terms, fees and sponsor compensation are set out in each deal's offering documents.

Who can investOfferings are open only to verified accredited investors under Rule 506(c) of Regulation D and are made only through each deal's offering documents. Investing through a trust, family office or entity? Mention it on the call.
