Sawyer Realty Holdings

As a privately held real estate investment and management firm with access to deep financial resources, Sawyer Realty Holdings has a unique ability to envision, assemble, and structure extraordinary real estate transactions.

Sawyer's transactions are characterized by innovative financing, which are made possible by longstanding relationships in the capital and lending markets. Because of its ability to act quickly and independently, Sawyer uses its expertise to evaluate a transaction, and to develop a highly specific business plan.

The Sawyer strategy is to leverage the promise of real estate, by acquiring undervalued multifamily properties, and then maintaining, operating and seeking high performance results.

Sawyer's real estate assets increase in value due to our hard working team of property specialists, supported by our decentralized management philosophy. As applied, it means that the team members closest to the property operate with considerable autonomy in attempting to create and add value. This culture of entrepreneurship, a key component of the Sawyer operational structure, makes every property more valuable.

Sawyer's Purpose

Sawyer's core purpose is to utilize real estate as an investment vehicle to enrich all of our affiliated stakeholders, including employees, lenders, suppliers, investors, officers, and principals, while providing an exceptional quality of living for the residents whose trust we must earn everyday.

We accomplish this purpose through the core values that we deem essential:
Integrity, Loyal, Accountable, Innovative, and Entrepreneurial.

In this way, Sawyer has been, and remains, an integral player in the creation of communities, and of the sharing of wealth.
