A Differentiated Approach to Real Estate Investing
Our investment expertise and unique capital structure combine to drive value
BLG Capital Advisors’ real estate private equity group is focused on opportunistic and value-oriented commercial real estate transactions both domestically and abroad. Our clients invest in single property transactions and property portfolios in a wide variety of direct equity structures, including at the operating company/enterprise-level and in portfolio aggregations, stand-alone asset acquisitions, and joint ventures with best-in-class operating partners.
