Investment Philosophy

Kaufman believes an understanding of real estate fundamentals, macro trends and capital markets is essential to making successful real estate investments. The key personnel at Kaufman have extensive experience in structuring real estate transactions, which include acquisitions of existing assets, developments and joint ventures as well as restructuring debt. In addition, the Kaufman team understands that the success of a real estate investment involves skillful operational "blocking and tackling". The Kaufman track record demonstrates that value creation is facilitated by upfront research, careful planning and timely execution. As such, we pride ourselves on being prudent risk-takers, not speculators.

Whether working on a tenant lease renewal or a potential building acquisition, Kaufman's boutique size provides a competitive advantage, allowing the team to act thoughtfully and decisively. Without the drag associated with large-company bureaucratic obstacles, Kaufman is able to take a focused approach to targeting acquisition opportunities and has an excellent closing record.
