Our Strategy

Our team carries out continuous and comprehensive analysis to identify the lower-middle markets across the United States that are poised to deliver superior performance. We search for markets with a low cost-basis that are positioned to capture GDP growth where we believe the development of distinct new platforms can fuel continued long-term growth.

Our extensive front-line operating experience in the lower middle market and institutional background enable us to invest with conviction across asset classes and the capital stack. We add value by leveraging lessons learned, applying insights gained from across our portfolio and through continuous analysis to evolve business plans and optimize upside, while continually reducing risk.

We focus on low volume high conviction platform investments with a select group of operating partners. Through joint-ventures in multiple properties we’re able to reduce risk by creating strong long-term alignment, consistent governance, and establishing the necessary infrastructure for integration, transparency, and controls with our investment partners.

We invest in carefully selected communities that we believe are most likely to benefit from the positive momentum related to population growth, increasingly educated workforces, and corporate relocations and expansions. As a 100% minority-owned firm Clay Cove Capital is dedicated to creating real value and productive buildings that enable each community to be its best self.
