Company
Realest is a privately held and minority owned, real estate services and investment firm focused on creating and optimizing the value of real estate through the confluence of innovation, cultures, experiences, industries, and communities. Our clients and our projects not only shape culture, but form an evergreen portfolio of experience-driven residential, retail, hospitality, office, leisure and entertainment assets in emerging growth markets.
Based in Los Angeles, Realest capitalizes on its proximity to the apex of entertainment, digital media, and innovative dining. With our diverse expertise and close ties to leaders in the real estate, fashion, culinary, music, and entertainment industries, Realest is uniquely positioned to develop a portfolio of experiential brands at the cross-section of multiple sectors. Together, our work has drawn over ten billion impressions and counting.
As commercial real estate is upended by emerging technologies, e-commerce, a flattened competitive landscape, and the recent global pandemic, we believe the best way to predict the unknown future is to invent it, creating our own reality. Then, diligently stewarding its course. This is how we ensure our capital investors and long-term brand partners are able to secure, stabilize, and maximize their investments in our institutional-grade projects throughout specific growth markets.
