About Us
Relay Properties began in 2012 with a clear focus: providing high-quality management for small to mid-sized multifamily properties. What started as a management-first approach quickly evolved. By 2013, we recognized the opportunity to build long-term value through ownership and began acquiring real estate for our own portfolio. Over the next decade, we strategically expanded - acquiring 27 buildings and 725 apartment units between 2013 and 2022. Our growth was fueled by a disciplined investment approach: acquiring underperforming assets, repositioning them to unlock value, and leveraging equity—both from family partnerships and reinvested returns—to scale our portfolio.
In 2020, we took a bold step towards the future. With our foundation established, we committed to transforming our management company into a scalable, efficient platform capable of supporting long-term growth. Over the following four years, we overhauled our systems, adopted a centralized management model, integrated new technologies, and built a team of talented professionals aligned with our mission. The result: a high- performance management operation that drives both operational excellence and superior financial outcomes across our portfolio.
Today, Relay Properties is not just a multifamily investor—we are a fully integrated real estate platform, combining a sharp eye for opportunities with a management company that delivers results. We're proud of where we’ve been, and we're excited about where we’re going.
With a solid foundation in place, our vision for Relay Properties is to raise outside capital to accelerate growth and pursue larger, more strategic multifamily assets. Over the years, we’ve developed a strong track record of sourcing high-potential real estate investment opportunities—leveraging deep market knowledge, extensive broker relationships, and a disciplined underwriting process. Our proven ability to identify and acquire value-add properties has been key to our success.
Equally important, our experienced in-house management company has played a critical role in driving performance across our portfolio. With refined operations, hands- on oversight, and a commitment to tenant satisfaction, our management team consistently delivers strong returns and asset stability. This combination of investment acumen and operational excellence positions Relay Properties as an ideal partner for outside capital, as we scale into larger assets and continue to grow our portfolio with confidence.
