Who We Are

Westside is a diversified real estate investment holding firm with a proven track record in real estate private equity investments, construction & development management and venture capital investments. We focus on defensive, value-added investing in traditional real estate asset classes, value focused cost-adjusted construction management and early stage venture capital investing in businesses strategically positioned along the real estate value chain.
We acquire cash-flowing properties at discounts to replacement costs. We improve them through hands-on management and targeted capital initiatives. Our efforts seek to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for the company across cycles and over the long term. Westsides' real estate portfolio allocations within asset classes, capital structures and markets shift based on macro-economic considerations.
Founded with love for real estate and passion for building communities that surround us, Westside has industry expertise and entrepreneurial spirit at heart. Our construction & development business prides itself on maximized cost-adjusted value creation. Our venture capital business shapes the communities we live in through early stage investments in real estate related technological start-ups.

Our Core Values

Teamwork

Teamwork is at the center of our operation and the catalyst for competitive advantage. Together, we tackle each of our projects with a customized approach that reflects the ambitious performance standards our stakeholders expect.

Integrity

We conduct ourselves with integrity in everything we do. Our reputation — as the nation’s leading real estate firm — is paramount. As a learning organization, we are self-critical — acknowledging our mistakes and always trying to learn from them.

Accountability

We use accountability and measurement as our north star – demanding the best of ourselves and the firm as a whole. Our positions are fueled by unmatched qualitative and quantitative analysis giving ourselves firmer footing to take a stand in any phase of negotiation.

Innovation

We challenge convention to unlock innovation: delivering bold insights, introducing new profitability frameworks, and remaining skeptical of “the way things are done”. With the credibility of a financial enterprise and agility of a lean entrepreneurial organization, we leverage big ideas in small timelines.
