Source
Lingerfelt sources acquisition opportunities through a trusted network of long-standing industry relationships, including brokers, owners, operators, and institutional partners. Our reputation for execution, discretion, and integrity positions us as a preferred buyer in competitive and off-market transactions. We also remain active in sourcing opportunities through direct outreach and strategic partnerships, enabling us to access a broad pipeline of qualified deals across targeted markets.
Underwrite
Once a qualified opportunity is identified, the Lingerfelt team moves swiftly and decisively. Our fully integrated platform, industry experience, data-driven market knowledge, and time-tested industry relationships together enable us to underwrite acquisition opportunities with an extremely high level of conservatism. With decades of experience across market cycles, we bring a sophisticated understanding of asset performance, risk mitigation, and long-term value creation. Our highly detail-oriented Due Diligence standards delve into every detail – large and small – of each potential transaction, well in advance of any investor capital going at risk. Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of each potential transaction are vetted aggressively, with only those opportunities possessing the highest upside and limited downside proceeding towards transaction consummation.
Acquire
Once an opportunity is rigorously underwritten, diligently analyzed, and fully approved by our 5-person Investment Committee, Lingerfelt's finance, accounting, legal, and administrative teams are able to close transactions with unmatched speed, communication, and certainty. We take contractual and hand-shake obligations seriously, never engaging in transactions we do not fully intend to follow through on at the closing table. Our long-standing equity partnership and debt capital relationships forged over 50 years in the business provide certainty of capital availability to successfully execute on acquisition pursuits.
Renovate
Lingerfelt often enhances asset performance through targeted capital improvements that align with market demand and tenant needs. From repositioning common areas and upgrading building systems to full-scale renovations and/or primary component replacements, our team oversees every phase with precision. We approach each project with a long-term perspective—maximizing usability, elevating aesthetics, and strengthening the asset’s market position.
Lease
Lingerfelt’s leasing approach is grounded in market intelligence, strong broker relationships, and a deep understanding of tenant drivers. We proactively position assets to attract and retain high-quality tenants, tailoring strategies to align with local demand and long-term business plans. Whether rebranding a property, adjusting floor plans, or offering creative deal structures, our team is focused on enhancing value through smart, sustained lease-up efforts. We proactively maintain a robust and diversified relationship base inclusive of all major brokerage firms in a given market in order to retain maximum marketing coverage and the most efficient deal-making as possible. We are also very deliberate in fully understanding modern user needs in order to deliver the most relevant product to our audience, always investing capital into vacancies for maximum flexible marketability.
Manage
Lingerfelt delivers best-in-class property and asset management through a vertically integrated approach that prioritizes operational efficiency, tenant satisfaction, and long-term value. Our best-in-class, heavily vetted local teams are empowered by institutional systems, allowing us to respond quickly, maintain high standards, and ensure each asset performs at its full potential. We manage with an ownership mindset—proactive, data-driven, and always aligned with investor goals. Via integrated systems across property accounting, lease administration, budgeting & forecasting, leasing pipeline management, and investment accounting, we are able to deliver best-in-class investor reporting customizable to specific partner and lender requirements, while also maintaining detailed periodic performance benchmarking against underwritten expectations throughout the lifecycle of each individual investment.
Sell
Lingerfelt evaluates each asset’s lifecycle through a disciplined investment lens. When a property reaches peak value or no longer aligns with overall portfolio strategy, we execute a carefully timed disposition plan designed to maximize investor returns. Leveraging market conditions, buyer relationships, and comprehensive property performance data, we deliver seamless, well-structured exits that reflect our commitment to long-term value creation. We always approach investment dispositions with an emphasis on efficiency and seamlessness, priding ourselves on purchaser and tenant satisfaction.
