Residential Real Estate Investments Backed by 25+ Years of Construction Experience

Crownex Capital acquires and improves residential properties, residential apartment buildings, and land opportunities with clear upside. What makes us different is not just underwriting—it's execution. With over 25 years of hands-on construction and renovation experience, we evaluate properties the way builders do: real scope, real costs, real timelines, and real outcomes.

We invest in:

Houses • Apartment buildings • Land with a defined plan

We win by:

Buying right + executing renovations + improving operations + protecting downside

Who We Are

Crownex Capital is a residential-focused investment firm built on two disciplines: smart acquisition and real-world construction execution.

With 25+ years in construction, we understand what's behind the walls—not just what's shown in photos. That experience helps us:

Identify structural and system risks early (roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, foundation)

Separate "cosmetic" from "costly"

Build accurate rehab scopes and budgets

Prevent delays by planning materials, trades, and sequencing correctly

Deliver renovations that actually increase resale value and rental performance

We don't rely on optimistic spreadsheets. We rely on professional assessment, conservative numbers, and proven execution.

What We Invest In

1) Residential Houses (Value-Add & Distressed)

We acquire properties where improvements create meaningful value. That includes homes that are outdated, under-maintained, vacant, inherited, or simply not being managed to their full potential.

Examples we pursue:

  • Dated interiors with upside through renovations (kitchens, baths, flooring, paint)
  • Homes needing moderate repairs (roof, windows, mechanical upgrades)
  • Vacant or neglected properties that require clean-out + rehab
  • Inherited properties where the seller wants a simple, professional solution

Why our construction background matters:

We can quickly determine whether a home is a "standard rehab" or a "hidden problem project," which protects both our timelines and our capital.

2) Residential Apartment Buildings (Stabilized or Value-Add)

We invest in apartment buildings where better operations and targeted upgrades can increase stability and income.

Examples we pursue:

  • Small to mid-size apartment buildings
  • Properties with vacancy or tenant-turnover upside
  • Under-market rents with a realistic improvement path
  • Deferred maintenance that can be fixed with a clear capex plan

Construction-led value-add for apartments includes:

  • Unit turns with consistent finish standards (durable materials, faster turnovers)
  • Common area upgrades that support rent premiums
  • Exterior improvements that increase tenant appeal and reduce complaints
  • Mechanical system planning to reduce emergency repairs and expense spikes

3) Land (Residential-Focused)

We invest in land only when there's a clear plan and realistic execution path.

Examples we pursue:

  • Infill lots and buildable parcels
  • Land positioned for residential development
  • Parcels with strong upside based on zoning, access, and demand

How our construction experience improves land decisions:

We understand build feasibility—grading, access, servicing, site constraints, and real development costs—so we don't overpay based on "best-case" assumptions.

Our Deal Criteria

Builder-Level Underwriting

Every opportunity is evaluated using a conservative framework that combines numbers + real construction reality.

We underwrite:

  • Location fundamentals (demand, comps, rent strength)

  • Rehab scope: cosmetic vs. mechanical vs. structural

  • Timeline feasibility based on trade sequencing (demo → rough-ins → inspections → finishes)

  • Realistic costs based on labor, material realities, and contingencies

  • Exit strategy: sell, refinance, hold, or build

  • Downside protection: reserves and stress tests

We're a fit when:

  • The rehab is definable and the upside is real
  • The opportunity can be executed without "hero assumptions"
  • The seller wants a direct and professional closing path

How Crownex Creates Value

Execution First

We create value through improvements we can control, not predictions we can't.

Our value creation includes:

Renovations & rehab execution

(cosmetic to moderate scope)

Mechanical + systems upgrades

(when needed to protect asset performance)

Stabilization

(reduce vacancy, increase quality tenants, reduce turnover)

Operational improvement

(expense control, maintenance planning, management systems)

Property repositioning

(curb appeal, safety, clean standards, durable finishes)

Land strategy

(define build path, entitlement needs, cost realism)
