THEASHFORD GROUP

Office and multifamily investment.

The Ashford Group is a private family office that acquires and holds commercial real estate in New York City and in major metropolitan markets throughout the United States.

We invest our own capital, underwrite in-house, and hold for the long term. We welcome direct submissions from brokers and owners.

WHO WE ARE

A family office, not a fund.

We are a private investment office acquiring real estate for our own account. There is no fund to raise, no investment committee to satisfy, and no syndication to assemble after a property goes under contract.

That structure is the reason we can move quickly. When we tell a broker we can close, the capital is already committed.

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
  • Decisions are made by the people you are speaking with.
  • No financing contingency built on capital we have not raised.
  • No assignment of contracts to a third party.
  • A direct answer on a deal, quickly, either way.
PROCESS

How we transact

We apply the same process to every acquisition, from initial review through closing. The stages below reflect how we typically transact.

01

Initial review

Send a rent roll and trailing twelve months of operating statements. You get a yes, a no, or a price range back within two business days.

02

Letter of intent

Price, deposit, diligence period, and closing date stated plainly. No financing contingency.

03

Diligence

Thirty to sixty days for inspection, lease audit, and title.

04

Closing

Thirty to forty-five days from the end of diligence, at the price on the contract.

SUBMIT A PROPERTY

Have something that fits?

Send it directly. We review every submission from a broker or an owner and respond ourselves.

Locations

Manhattan and prime Brooklyn.

Deal size

$5,000,000 and above.

Asset types

Office, mixed-use, and multifamily.

Condition

Stabilized assets and value-add business plans both work for us. We are comfortable with deferred maintenance, below-market rents, vacancy, and assets that need management replaced. We do not pursue ground-up development.

Capital

Acquisitions are funded from the family office balance sheet. We will assume existing debt where the terms warrant it, and we will structure as an entity purchase where that is cleaner for the seller.

To underwrite

A current rent roll, trailing twelve months of operating statements, and a unit mix or stacking plan. That is enough for a first-round answer.
