Investment Focus

Two areas of concentration

Ocean Crest Properties focuses its real estate investments in two complementary areas.

Prestigious Real Estate

High-end, luxury properties characterized by unique locations, architectural significance and premium amenities — waterfront and other one-of-one assets.

High-Growth Communities

Areas of the country with increasing projected net domestic migration. Jobs, warm weather, retirement destinations, and the silver tsunami all contribute to these migration patterns.

Properties Acquired

Emerging Portfolio

Seven properties across Southwest Florida, the Connecticut Shoreline, and Southern Maine have already been acquired. More are pending.

“Real estate is a local game. Ocean Crest has cultivated strong support teams and relationships in key communities that meet our economic growth criteria but may be premature targets for many larger institutional investors. This strategy allows us to become early adopters on prestigious properties and in emerging communities that project strong net migration.”

Chris Kuselias — Founder, Ocean Crest Ventures

Current Real Estate Portfolio

Three target regions

Southwest Florida

Naples and the Gulf Coast

Anchored by our Ritz Carlton Residence acquisition in Naples, Southwest Florida pairs prestigious Gulf Coast waterfront assets with some of the strongest net-migration trends in the country — warm weather, retirement destinations and steady population inflows.
