Our Investment Strategy
In over 40 years of business, we've engineered a practical, risk-adjusted approach to investing. Our proven strategy targets value-add opportunities in office, industrial, and mixed-use assets.
Our successful approach to investing seems simple but results from decades of experience. We identified the ten best secondary markets in the United States positioned for high economic growth. In these areas, we either acquire undervalued properties and apply our investment strategy or leverage our experience on high-yield, ground-up land site developments.
High-Growth Markets: We invest in ten non-coastal, high-growth secondary markets that we've chosen because of their expectation to continue on an upward demand trajectory for the long term.
Opportunistic Sectors: We focus on profit-oriented investments in CRE sectors like office and industrial that demonstrate potential for consistent growth with relatively low-risk.
Value-Add Approach: We believe that value-add investments generate the best risk-adjusted returns, so we focus on those investments with conservative leverage.
Disciplined Sourcing: We only invest where we believe ROI will outperform the broader market. Every move is backed by data-driven market research and due diligence, which is why we only invest in 2% of the assets we investigate.
Investment Performance
Commercial real estate is a very cut-and-dry industry. Either your investments are generating a return or they're not. We strive to meet our goal of positive results with every investment opportunity.
7% average cash yield to investors
14% internal rate of return net to investors
How We Build Our Portfolio
The commercial real estate sector is laden with opportunities — not all of them positive. Identifying and differentiating the right moves from the wrong ones requires an intimate knowledge of the local markets, a tightly controlled and precisely executed strategy for increasing value, and the experience to streamline the process.
We seek investment opportunities with an attractive discount-to-replacement cost, a history of peak-to-peak rent growth, and a relatively long weighted average lease term. By combining a data-driven, top-down analysis of our markets and assets, we're able to add significant value to each property for our investors.
Why Griffin Partners is Unique
Griffin Partners is a full-service real estate company focused on value-add investments that generate a strong ROI. What makes us different from other companies is that our principals invest significant capital alongside our clients and set a high standard for fair and transparent terms. In other words, we invest our money right alongside yours. The result? Over 50 investments with entirely profitable performance.
Our Approach to Acquisition
Many of the most lucrative opportunities to purchase new land or existing commercial assets are relatively private, closed-circle dealings, and finding them requires a strong, respected presence in the market. That's why we've established long-standing relationships within the business communities of the markets in which we operate. Not only do they enable us to fully participate in the two-way street of local commerce, but they give us an advantageous position in pursuing real estate with the most potential to add value to our portfolio.
Growth-Oriented Asset Management
Acquiring and developing real estate is only part of the equation. It also has to be expertly managed with the specific goals of increasing cash flow, satisfying tenant needs, and maximizing its value over the long term. To ensure our efforts benefit our organization, clients, and community, all of our operations and internal processes happen within the framework we've established in our environmental, social, and governance values.
