The Process

How We Acquire

A disciplined, repeatable acquisition lifecycle from first underwriting to return on investment.

  1. 01

    Source and Underwriting

    We identify value add opportunities across the Houston MSA and vigorously underwrite each deal against our buying criteria.

  2. 02

    Negotiate and Contract

    We secure favorable terms and put the property under contract, backed by thorough due diligence.

  3. 03

    Raise Capital and Close

    We partner with accredited investors through an aligned partnership structure to fund and close acquisitions.

  4. 04

    Execute the Value-Add

    We implement our renovation and repositioning plans to increase property value and operate at best and highest use.

  5. 05

    Refinance and Return Capital

    Once stabilized, we refinance to return a portion or the full amount of investor capital, while retaining ownership and ongoing cash flow.

  6. 06

    Hold and Exit

    We continue to hold and operate the property for cash flow, then execute a strategic sale, delivering investors their remaining equity and profit share at exit.

The ARI Capital Group Process

Syndication Timeline

The five stage syndication process.

  1. 01

    Property Discovery and Acquisition

    Our team filters potential opportunities on key factors including price, location, and asset quality, so we only acquire properties that meet our goals and expectations and pass the stringent underwriting process that follows.

  2. 02

    Due Diligence and Final Underwriting

    The initial underwriting kicks off a comprehensive due diligence schedule, from onsite inspections to a financial deep dive. We mitigate potential risks while maximizing rewards, with only the most qualified deals moving forward.

  3. 03

    Renovations, Property Development, and Ongoing Value Add

    We focus renovation work on the best position each investment property is in, refreshing or overhauling underperforming assets and driving rents in the right direction. This improves cash flow and long-term capital appreciation while limiting ongoing maintenance expenses.

  4. 04

    Stabilizing and Refinancing Assets

    Once a property is stabilized for 90 days, we refinance the property long term into a fixed interest rate, pay off the short term construction or acquisition loan, and pay investors their money back. Long term debt is in place and investors get their money back.

  5. 05

    Managing and Operating Structured Assets

    We stay invested beyond day one. Our team manages the systems, processes, and tools needed to operate a portfolio of income producing assets across multiple markets, with investor updates throughout.
