Mana Investments began as a distress real estate investor functioning as a programmatic partner for a multi-billion dollar alternative investment firm. Our team excels in uncovering value through complex zoning regulations and working with municipalities to gain approval for developments. After a series of joint ventures building out our approved projects together, Mana vertically integrated by founding Aspen Residential with Bruce Bonfield. The team has grown to include in-housing purchasing as well as multiple site superintendents. This integration of a general contracting into the investment platform firm reduces risk, allow for proper alignment and helps to control costs.
Integrated Investment
Capitalization
Through our existing network of both debt and equity partners, our firm typically discusses the business case for investments with our partners well before the completion of a purchase agreement.
Acquisition
Each member of our team in incentivized to bring forth profitable investments. We scour through thousands of potential investments on an annual basis and only invest in those which exhibit a favorable risk/return scenario and meet a particular market need.
Entitlements
This is a core competency of our team as we have entitled thousands of homes since our inception. Each forward looking decision is thoroughly tested within our proprietary financial model. We aim to balance the line between design and profitability.
Value Engineering
Maximizing the project’s function while minimizing cost generates the greatest value for our partners.
Horizontal Infrastructure
We have substantial experience completing complex infrastructure projects.
Vertical Construction
Our trusted network of subcontractors allows us to effectively build communities.
Asset Management
Real estate development is problem solving. We are not a high-volume developer. We focus on niche investments that make economical sense. From acquisition to completion, our team gets to know the needs of the tenants behind the income stream.
