Graceada Partners is a commercial real estate investment firm founded in 2008, focusing on value-add opportunities in industrial parks and apartments within secondary and tertiary markets in the Western United States. With a vertically integrated team of over 60 professionals, the firm leverages its extensive experience to manage, renovate, and enhance the value of properties. The company's foundation is built upon a long-term partnership between its founders, Joe and Ryan, who have maintained a friendship since childhood and possess over 35 years of combined industry experience. This background enables Graceada Partners to navigate market challenges effectively and identify opportunities for growth, even in times of economic distress.
Graceada Partners has developed a strategically selective investment approach, having evaluated more than 700 properties, of which only about 5% are acquired, ensuring a focus on high-quality investments. The firm emphasizes a low-cost basis acquisition with conservative debt, which facilitates downside risk mitigation. Active asset management practices are pivotal, with a typical holding period of three to five years, during which the team is dedicated to significantly increasing net operating income (NOI) through well-planned renovations, effective leasing strategies, and by aligning properties with current market demands.
Today, Graceada Partners manages multiple investment funds, with a collective aim of achieving satisfactory risk-adjusted returns while enhancing the communities in which they operate. The firm is built on the values of positive impact, respect, and enthusiastic execution, believing that improving properties translates to better living conditions for residents and better outcomes for investors. Graceada Partners continues to innovate in real estate, driven by a commitment to excellence and sustainability.
