THE DISCIPLINE

We buy into dislocation, manage with institutional rigor, and realize into strength.

PRA has positioned itself in an exclusive niche — the $10M–$50M segment where the large institutional investor and the local entrepreneur rarely compete. Our edge is timing: financial expertise and management techniques typically reserved for far larger investors, applied to select opportunities in a market under continual consolidation.

01
Acquire in dislocation

From the RTC era to the 2008 recovery, PRA has bought when others couldn't — and preserved principal doing it.

02
Manage with rigor

Asset managers, financial analysts, and controllers run holds with institutional-grade discipline.

03
Realize into strength

Holding periods are set by supply constraints, net absorption, and new construction — then sold into the run-up.

SELECTED TRACK RECORD

Three decades of contrarian timing.

WHAT WE'RE BUILDING NOW

Industrial, across California and the Southwest.

Today PRA is developing and acquiring industrial real estate — the same contrarian, forward-thinking model that has driven an enviable return on investment and principal preservation for three decades. In 2016 we delivered 213,000 SF at the Broadway 101 Industrial Park in Mesa for a long-term hold. We're actively looking for the next one.
