THE ACP STRATEGY
In order to consistently achieve outstanding investment results, America's Capital Partners (ACP) has always focused on a simple strategy.
Identify Opportunity
ACP's uncanny ability to consistently identify opportunity is a function of the team's experience and long-term relationships. Our decision makers have built their careers from the ground up, working in all areas of commercial brokerage, construction and development. ACP understands what tenants want and our team is adept at structuring transactions that will satisfy the tenant's objectives while enhancing value to our projects and our investors. We have also developed life-long friendships and relationships with the leasing brokerage industry. The Principals of ACP, along with key ACP team members, nurture and cultivate these broker relationships which enhance our ability to consistently capture more than our fair share of absorption.
Manage Risk
ACP has also developed outstanding relationships in the commercial lending, investment banking and capital markets arena. We are equally comfortable with balance sheet lenders or a CMBS execution. This dexterity has enabled us to develop ideal debt structures for each transaction and achieve crisp execution at closing. ACP is well regarded within the lending community as a sponsor with a flawless reputation. During times of capital market illiquidity, these relationships have allowed ACP to obtain competitive financing for transactions when others have been effectively shut out of the market.
ACP values the relationships we have with our capital partners. Given the number of transactions consummated and the dollar volumes involved, ACP has had relatively few capital partners over the years. We strive to understand the unique blend of risk and returns preferred by each partner, then seek transactions likely to achieve their investment goals. This approach has generated repeat business with all our partners and fortified their confidence that ACP is their managing member and operating partner of choice.
As the managing member and operating partner of the transaction, we take our fiduciary responsibility seriously. Our mission is to create value. However, the mission is always balanced against a backdrop of managing risk. Our transactions are conservatively capitalized with prudent and moderate debt levels; sufficient interest, capital and leasing reserves; and appropriate levels of working capital.
Create Value
Ultimately, it is about creating value. ACP creates value for its investors, lenders, tenants, vendors and employees. We are easy to work with, clever, aggressive, creative, capable and unpretentious. In multiple markets with different asset classes across different market cycles, ACP has consistently been able to identify opportunity, develop a business plan and execute that business plan to achieve outstanding investment results.
