Ira Fishman

Co-Founder

I’m Ira Fishman, a seasoned real estate professional with 15 years of experience in ownership, asset management and deal finding. With an accounting degree from the University of Illinois, I bring a unique financial perspective to my real estate ventures.

Throughout my career, I have successfully owned and managed diverse portfolios of properties, specializing in acquisitions in Illinois, Wisconsin, and South Carolina. Utilizing my expertise in asset management, I have optimized the performance and profitability of properties in these regions.

As a skilled deal finder, I excel at identifying off-market opportunities with strong potential for appreciation and cash flow. Drawing on my accounting background, I bring a meticulous approach to financial analysis, ensuring sound investment decisions.

Join me as we embark on a journey of strategic property acquisitions, leveraging our collective expertise and resources for mutual success in these thriving markets.

Wen Zeng

Co-founder

I’m Wen Zeng, an experienced and active real estate investor with nine years of experience as owner and operator.  I hold a dual degree in Engineering and an MBA from the University at Albany and the prestigious University of Rochester, respectively.  

My journey into multifamily real estate investment began in Jersey City in 2014. Over the years, I have focused on acquiring and effectively managing multifamily residential properties in both New Jersey and Philadelphia while working full-time as an engineer. My dedication to value-add opportunities has allowed me to unlock hidden potential in properties and achieve good results for my investments.  I have achieved a successful investment track record, completing a full cycle that includes one sale and two cash-out refinances.  

Beyond my professional endeavors, I find joy and fulfillment in my family life. I am happily married and reside in Millburn, NJ, with my wife and our adventurous 3-year-old son. In my leisure time, I indulge in various outdoor activities. Hiking is one of my favorite pastimes, and I’ve explored captivating trails in the Catskills mountains in upstate New York. Additionally, I cherish moments spent traveling and discovering new places, as well as experimenting with cooking in the kitchen. 

Our main focus is to acquire multifamily apartment buildings as well as HUD Senior and Family Housing.

We believe in providing clean, non-contingent cash offers and working on closing a transaction with the utmost of integrity with complete transparency at all times.
