KEY QUOTE:

“What would you pay in marketing to get that exposure and get that reputation? You get an opportunity to make a great deal work and also make an entry into the market. Because, if you start monetizing that time and opportunity cost, it's a different framework.”

SUMMARY OF BUSINESS:

Re-viv is a private equity investment company that uses real estate investment strategies that drive impactful growth for both investors and the community at large. We believe in acquiring and developing housing in up-and-coming neighborhoods that are attractive to young professionals and working families that classify as “the renter by necessity” class. While our approach borrows heavily from traditional value-add and opportunistic investment strategies in the middle market space; our value is driven by what we do differently.
