Our core belief at Watermark is that responsible tenants deserve to live in safe, clean, green, and affordable homes. To realize this we revitalize communities in the South East and Midwest through investment to create quality workforce housing. At Watermark Partners Real Estate, we raise and actively manage funds for the acquisition, improvement, and management of strong income-generating real estate assets in the South East and Midwest. At Watermark, we believe we can invest and manage with both a commitment to our investors and community in mind. Our funds generate outsized returns for investors by acquiring, improving, and intelligently managing real estate assets. Our focus is on acquiring poorly positioned or deeply discounted assets that will benefit from our management expertise to enhance profitability in an effort to ensure long-term sustainability and achieve above-market returns for investors. Watermark targets properties that generate strong annual income for investors from the date of acquisition, using its Leadership Team's expertise to improve the income and value of all properties within the funds. Prior to any acquisition, each property is thoroughly analyzed from a variety of perspectives to determine (1) if it meets our strict Investment Strategy, (2) if any improvement or renovation project would enhance future revenues, and (3) if the property furthers our commitment to building better communities. By adding value through improvement projects, the portfolio's overall performance should increase through higher occupancy rates and rental rates over the life of the project, and provide a better place to live for the community we house.
