The Westport Team
Our principals each have 15-20 years of deep experience valuing real estate opportunities and structuring investments. Our team, which has worked together for more than a decade, offers a rare blend of hands-on real estate experience, sophisticated capital markets expertise, and long-established contacts in the real estate and financial communities. As a result of the longevity and cohesiveness of our Management Team, we have developed a unique working environment for an institutional investment firm: an entrepreneurial culture that simultaneously emphasizes creativity and new ideas, while invoking discipline, conservatism, and integrity as core values.
