Investment Management
We build value for our partners and the local community.
We help our partners maximize ROI.
Duke is committed to producing the best possible return for its partners. Even when the market is at cyclical lows, by repositioning and improving its assets, Duke mitigates risk and captures the substantial appreciation available through Value-Add and Opportunistic property acquisition. Duke focuses on affordable neighborhoods targeting smaller assets that are less susceptible to waxing and waning demand. Engaging this middle-market has allowed Duke to operate swiftly and nimbly; taking on less volatility in regards to both the inherent illiquidity of real estate as an investment sector, and the macroeconomic trends that have affected metropolitan real estate in the past. Every property Duke focuses on constitutes a blue ocean strategy, where value is created and communities are enriched.
Expert Knowledge
We have maintained our focus on residential real estate in our core markets for the last 20 years. As such, our knowledge of local markets is one of our strengths. We are able to avoid the threats, fulfill the obligations and exploit the opportunities in these markets in order to produce superior risk-adjusted returns.
Strategically Integrated
We are tactical and shrewd in our analysis of the niche markets we operate within; taking older and distressed middle-market assets (35 units or less) in emerging communities and renovating them to generate value. We then tailor each property to the surrounding neighborhood by pinpointing and engaging local partners to create a distinctive, proprietary brand.
