Staywell Capital is a real estate investment firm that strategically acquires value-add multifamily properties
We believe that great places to live translate into superior investments.
Staywell Capital was formed in 2020 to strategically acquire value-add multifamily properties with an emphasis on Chicago and high-quality growth markets in the Midwest and beyond.
Staywell provides attractive opportunities to investors through syndication and partnerships with a focus on delivering strong cash-on-cash returns and long-term equity enhancement.
We are hands-on investors/developers and focus on only a handful of opportunities at a time.
Investment Strategy
Acquisition Focus
Well-located multifamily properties, ideally with in-place cash flow: B-grade assets in A-grade locations
Small to middle market focus: $2 to $25mm acquisition cost
Opportunity to reposition and create value in the asset
Will selectively consider opportunistic investments that require more intensive repositioning or redevelopment
Value-Add Strategy
Correct operational inefficiencies through more aggressive asset and property management
Execute targeted “high ROI” interior and exterior renovations
Introduce amenities best suited to enhance tenant experience
Address deferred maintenance
Capture branding and marketing improvement opportunities
Debt Analysis
Source advantageous debt with prudent leverage and terms best suited for an individual investment
Return Realization
Bias toward longer-term holds, but will determine the best course of action after execution of business plan: sale or refinance + hold
Target Returns
15-25%+ investor IRR and 2.0x+ equity multiple
