With beginnings in the multifamily residential sector of western Queens, NY, Criterion Group LLC has built a capacity for scale and a diversity of asset types. Today, the Criterion portfolio spans apartment buildings, self-storage facilities, film studios, warehousing, industrial yards and truck parking facilities throughout the continental United States. Since 2002, Criterion has grown deliberately and organically with an eye for overlooked value. Often, the perceived undesirability of locations, asset types and financing constraints enables the team to identify and capitalize on opportunities in their infancy. As a result, Criterion’s decisions have been predictive of institutional capital prior to saturation and overpricing of assets. Criterion’s hands-on approach to asset management has granted the team resilience and allowed it to excel during substantial downturns, including the Great Recession of 2008 and the COVID-19 pandemic.
