Like markets, the Weather is a complex system, but patterns create more predictable outcomes. A pressure gradient generates winds that produce waves, just like we identify market dislocations that create opportunities to maximize returns for our partners, occupants and the planet.
We invest, develop and provide advice for multifamily, office, and targeted sector projects to create outsized returns for our partners, our occupants and the planet. With a track record of delivering over $1.2B of investment profit in high-return, sustainable, community-impacting projects, we have deep experience - both the success and overcoming challenges - enabling us to create a custom Business Plan with a tailored team for each WindWave Project to excel in any market condition. We are stewards of Real Property serving institutional investors, accredited investors and lenders.
Our team is comprised of experts in investment, development, asset management, leasing & marketing, operations, and finance, drawn from the world's leading real estate development, investment and advisory firms, including CBRE, Tishman Speyer, Lendlease, Trizec Properties, and Newmark.
