WHAT WE DO
Imagineering Real Estate, One Property At A Time.
At Valiance Capital, we transform undervalued multifamily and student housing real estate into modern, branded assets in the most desirable locations and markets in the US.
Our mission is to provide access to institutional-grade real estate, tax-efficient passive income, and long-term wealth for our partners while creating long-term value for our communities. We provide access to the most attractive market opportunities in high-demand, high-growth areas. We execute aesthetic upscale renovations and new developments. We strive to deliver unrivaled hospitality-driven management to our communities.
Over the past 13 years, we have engineered a vertically integrated approach across multiple disciplines to corner our markets, reflected in our proven track record and our reputation in the markets we specialize in.
HOW WE DO IT
Deft Decisions. Prudent Process.
To put it plainly, we are the best because we strive to add value at every step of the investment process, no matter how seemingly insignificant the opportunity. This approach allows for us to optimize returns, without adding more risks, and ultimately producing favorable risk-adjusted results to our ecosystem of stakeholders, resulting in access to more opportunities. This flywheel effect is what gives us access to the best opportunities. Our approach focuses on the long-term, creating value in our properties and communities over the long haul. This is what makes our properties so attractive to our residents, and in the end, what’s good for our residents is good for our business.
OUR ADVANTAGE
Local Expertise. Operational Edge.
Over the past 13 years, we have become one of the most established local operators in the Berkeley submarket. To put it plainly, our extensive local experience, combined with our full-scale, vertically integrated operations, has provided a competitive moat that funnels opportunities and creates leverage that isn't available to our larger, less-entrenched competitors.
Source & Acquire Opportunistic Multi-Family & Student Housing Properties
Our proven value-add investment process begins with Valiance, where we opportunistically source assets and drive best-in-class acquisition methods while managing calculated risks and exploiting market inefficiencies on underperforming assets. Our local investment experience, stringent acquisition criteria, and operator-focused specialization enable consistently exploiting off-market properties at sub-market prices (Over 40 to date).
Design and Transform Value-Add,
Ground-Up Developments
After strategic acquisition, our in-house design and construction teams execute our collective creative vision to achieve undeniably attractive spaces inspired by the best-in-class boutique hotels of the hospitality industry. Our vertical integration allows for the ever-increasing refinement of our elevated designs and our true-cost basis and renovation process. The result? An average 55% increase in market value within 24 months of property acquisition.
Deploy Best-In-Class Service to
Cultivate Thriving Communities
A critical competitive advantage to our proven process is the local expertise of our in-house management team and its obsession with hospitality and quality customer service. With a hands-on management approach, our operations team constantly strives to create and cultivate thriving communities via curated events, on-demand & on-site staffing, and efficient management of back-end operations. As an experienced and reputable local operator, we have invaluable information that gives us the edge needed to stay highly competitive and nimble.

WHY WE'RE DISTINCT
High Velocity Returns. Capital Preservation.
VELOCITY OF CAPITAL
Highly Accelerated Rate of Investor Equity Return
From day one, our top priority is to achieve a high-velocity return of investor capital. Strategic investment criteria combined with intentionally designed vertical integration, sub-market specialization, and an extensive network of capital and operating partners enable us to target and achieve a 30% to 60% return of original investor equity within 24-36 months of acquisition. This is achieved through forced value-added appreciation and high-caliber execution of the project.
CAPITAL SHELTER
Deploy Sophisticated Tax-Advantaged Strategies
Through strategic use of tax-advantaged strategies, we accelerate the tax benefits of depreciation, allowing the bulk of which to be captured in the very first years post-acquisition. This generates tax shelters that offset against passive and active gains in income for our investors. Additionally, we provide support in real estate tax optimization, estate planning, accounting, and tax structuring with the end goal of wealth preservation and maximization. In the end, it’s not about how much money you make, but how much you keep.
INVESTOR-FIRST ETHOS
Educate & Guide
At Valiance Capital, we’re driven by our mission of making an impact in the financial lives of those important to us. Our investors – which began as only family and friends – are at the very core of our “Why” and achieving perpetual prosperity for all of us is the legacy that we work diligently to leave behind. It is only through financial education and knowledge that people can better their financial lives, and via our core investor-first ethos we aim to light the way.

OUR RESULTS
Sustainable Growth. Demonstrated Results.
Since our first acquisition in 2010, our portfolio of assets has grown from a single duplex in Berkeley, CA, into a multifamily and student housing real estate portfolio worth over $300 million. Over the last decade, we have outperformed the market by an average of 17.5% every year, growing explosively from just 2 units in 2010 to over 900 beds and growing. With over $300 million in principal transactions executed and an average net annualized return of 25.5% on disposed assets, we continue to invest in our platform to identify market dislocations to scale our growing portfolio and expand our impact on the community we invest in.

WHO WE ARE
Obsessively Driven. Relentlessly Determined.
At Valiance Capital, the unrelenting pursuit of perpetual prosperity guides our every waking moment. It’s what gets us out of bed in the morning, and keeps us in the office long after the city has gone to sleep. We’re a team of go-getters—driven and ambitious, entrepreneurial in nature—that understand that the only way to get ahead in this world is through grit, an obsessive work ethic, and relentless persistence. Propelled by financial hardship in our early lives, we realized early on that true success is a marathon, not a sprint, so we’re in this for the long haul.

Re-imagined and re-defined, Prospect is Valiance Capital’s flagship project that is revolutionizing what student housing can be.

CASE STUDIES
The Mattox
The Mattox is a 57-unit garden-style apartment community acquired by Valiance Capital in 2018, in Hayward, CA — a rapidly growing workforce housing market that is experiencing a “spillover effect” of high demand from the surrounding Bay Area communities of Oakland, San Francisco, and Silicon Valley.
Market demand for high quality housing was clear, and Valiance set forth a rebranding and repositioning campaign to meet and exceed modern consumer expectations.
