Who we are
Spirit Realty Ventures is a private real estate development and investment firm focused on value-add and ground-up projects across Connecticut. We identify undervalued assets, execute disciplined renovations and developments, and deliver strong risk-adjusted returns to our investor partners.
Our principals have over 30 years of combined experience and have overseen more than $20M in project value. We operate with the rigor of an institutional firm and the accessibility of a local partner — because that's exactly what our investors deserve.
Why partner with us
We've built our firm around the things that matter most to sophisticated investors.
We focus exclusively on Connecticut markets we know intimately — Hartford County, Tolland County, and surrounding communities. Local knowledge is our edge.
Every deal is stress-tested against downside scenarios. We pass on more opportunities than we take, and we never chase yield at the expense of capital preservation.
Our team co-invests in every project. We only profit meaningfully when our investors do — there is no other way we want it.
Rigorous deal analysis, detailed reporting, and transparent communication — the standards of institutional real estate applied to a personal, relationship-driven firm.
Completed projects have delivered realized IRRs of 27–31% and consistent cash-on-cash returns for our rental portfolio. Results speak louder than projections.
You will always have a direct line to our principals. No call centers, no runaround — just straightforward communication throughout every project.
