ABOUT US
 
Overview and Investment Strategy
 
BAF Associates, Inc.’s investment strategy is value driven. Our track record and experience in the real estate world has translated into a successful program of acquiring under managed and overlooked quality investment properties. BAF’s knowledge and capability focuses on sourcing, meticulous underwriting, financial and tax structuring, and negotiating the purchase of income producing real estate. We focus on acquiring, under performing, but fundamentally sound properties in strong locations, within submarkets with favorable attributes. We invest in properties that have a realizable and realistic potential, which when coupled with conservative underwriting, lead to value maximization and a high likelihood of success. BAF achieves growth in value through an entrepreneurial management style, creative deal structuring, strategic thinking, and a can do attitude. Before undertaking an acquisition we thoroughly evaluate the cash flow, current and historical financial statements, environmental and engineering, deal structure, and the likelihood of the potential for appreciation.
 
BAF acts as both investor and active owner. As an active owner we fill the role of asset manager and redeveloper. Our hands-on asset management team proactively manages properties and actively performs preventive maintenance in order to minimize expenses and maximize profits which contribute to higher than market returns. To maximize value, we have aligned ourselves with superior third party property management companies.
 
BAF currently has a presence primarily in multi-family properties; as well as passive involvement in industrial and office properties. By remaining small, having an uncompromising focus, and commitment to excellence, we believe that the firm is well positioned to thrive in the current real estate environment.
