— Acquisitions

Our multifamily buy box.

Monument Equity is acquiring small-to-mid value-add multifamily. The active sleeve is sourcing today, with a 2026–2027 goal of 2–3 closings and $1.5–3M of capital deployed. The buy box below is the filter — if a deal sits inside it, we want to see it.

— Geographic Focus

Where we're buying.

Geographic specificity matters. We rank target submarkets market by market and share the priority list directly with the brokers we work with.

Tier 1
Send everything

Core target submarkets — the strongest combination of rent-gap upside and stable operating fundamentals.

Tier 2
Selective, displacement-aware

Adjacent submarkets we'll pursue selectively, with a careful eye on displacement dynamics.

Tier 3
Case-by-case

Emerging or transitional areas — we'll look, but we won't lead.

— Hard Passes For Now

Structural / foundation issues, active environmental, occupancy below 60%, owner-occupied, condo conversions, and properties needing rezoning for current use.

— How We Work

A true broker collaboration.

Not a buyer's-agent feed. We'll be doing the hunt with you — sourcing, underwriting, traveling, and bringing deals as much as you bring them to us.

Two-way deal flow

We'll send Crexi pulls, off-market signals, and properties from elsewhere. We want to be the first call on anything in the buy box, or anything you think might interest us.

We underwrite, you partner

Modeling and diligence sit on our side — you don't need to build pro formas. We rely on you for local read: pricing, comps, owner context, and what's quietly being shopped before market.

Speed when it matters

LOI inside 48 hours on the right deal. Lender pre-qual, entity stack, and vendor bench in motion. On the ground at a moment's notice.

Ground game

10–15 multi-day market trips per year, walking buildings personally. Kickoff trip is May 18–21, 2026. Identify by late summer 2026; LOI candidate by Labor Day.

— Submit a Deal

Send it over.

Deal Submission

We respond personally to every submission within 24 hours during business days.

All submissions confidential. Response within one business day.

Forward an OM, a pocket listing, or a one-line "you should look at this."
