About Western Wealth Capital
We have a singular focus: create wealth through well-selected real estate investment. We acquire under-performing multifamily rental properties and increase net operating income and valuation through an approach that has been successfully applied across our entire portfolio. We manage these assets, distribute resulting cash flow to investors and, when appropriate, divest. We only focus on markets underpinned by the economic fundamentals of population, employment and GDP growth. Our entry point is when these demand drivers place long-term pressure on vacancy rates and rental pricing. To date, we have invested in the Phoenix and San Antonio markets. Our execution and results have formed strong relationships that give us access to some of the best multifamily investment opportunities in the American Southwest.
