Investment thesis
Penwood focuses on value-added real estate investing for institutional investors, aiming to deliver above-market returns while minimizing risk. It structures value-creation strategies in individual or commingled fund formats. To source deals, the firm works with local operating partners in off-market situations rather than open-market broker-directed bidding, acquiring properties at cost or below replacement cost to establish a value-added margin. Penwood applies deal structuring and risk management expertise to manage incremental risk: minimizing pre-development risk by investing only in appropriately zoned land, limiting construction risk through value-engineering and development partner guarantees, and managing market risk by maximizing income and assessing effects on capitalization rates and property values.
