Founded in 2016, Mercer Street is a real estate investment and asset management firm focused on disciplined capital deployment and active asset management.

The management team has individually and/or collectively acquired, and asset managed over $3.5 billion in U.S. real estate investments across a multitude of asset classes including hospitality, multifamily, office, industrial, and ground leases. Mercer Asset Management, an affiliate of Mercer Street, is a sponsor of 1031 exchange-eligible Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) offerings, providing investors the opportunity to acquire tax-advantaged, fractional interests in stabilized, institutionally managed commercial real estate.   

Mercer Street applies institutional-level acquisitions and asset management tactics to middle-market transactions, creating better places to live, work, and stay while seeking to deliver superior returns on investment.

Our approach

Mercer Street targets higher risk adjusted return opportunities across a diverse set of asset classes.

Though focused on select secondary and tertiary markets with a dynamic and growing urban core, Mercer Street also considers a broad range of opportunities nationwide.

Special areas of focus for Mercer Street include:

Attractive multifamily opportunities in secondary and tertiary markets where Mercer Street can identify and unlock value via active asset management

Select short-term opportunities where Mercer Street can place capital at a deep discount. Mercer Street will consider all asset classes as well as operating companies.

Both traditional and non-traditional hospitality investments, including hotels, short term rentals, and social clubs, in strong secondary markets.

Opportunities to acquire or originate ground leased fee positions, with a primary focus on hospitality assets, nationwide.
