Our Bio: ColRich is a real estate, construction and investment firm focused on value‑add, residential real estate in strategic locations primarily in the Western U.S. Our platform’s sustainability is assured through long‑term ownership enabled by long‑term debt and equity. We are focused on enduring, tax‑efficient cash flow for our investors. In the multifamily space, we actively maximize cash‑on‑cash returns and capital appreciation by acquiring properties with upside through extensive renovation and improved management. Leveraging our unique homebuilding background and construction platform, we reposition these older properties as design‑forward, affordable workforce housing alternatives to newer Class A product.

Currently we are bringing to market two master‑planned, destination‑oriented communities offering a combined 5,000+ homes (both for sale and rental) over a 10‑year time horizon. In addition, the company is also working on several individual apartment developments (1,000+ units). With a service matters operating philosophy, our team is passionate about supporting residents across our portfolio, building better environments that fuel happier residents, improving investor returns and creating a strong sense of purpose that drives what we do every day.
