CONVENTIONAL MULTIFAMILY
Ashland’s strong executive team has over 20 years of experience. Each member brings a unique perspective in the acquisition, financing, construction, asset management, operation and disposition of multifamily assets. Ashland sets itself apart from its peers through its ability to build relationships with key industry players and best-in-class operators to assist in deal and capital sourcing. Through the firm’s acquisitions of over 1,500 units, Ashland has successfully unlocked outsized value for both sponsorship and investors, and has created significant streams of passive income for all parties involved.
STUDENT-HOUSING
As the student-housing landscape rapidly evolves, Ashland Capital finds this asset class to be consistently lucrative. During the 2008-2010 financial crisis, MBA applications surged 50% reinforcing the counter-cyclicality of these housing assets. In addition, demand for a college education continues to increase; enrollment in US undergraduate programs increased by 30% from 2000-2015, with an additional 13% growth expected by 2026. Regardless of macro-market conditions, both on and off-campus student-housing provides a strong and reliable cash-flow stream as long as the university is in good standing.
PRIVATE CREDIT INCOME FUND
Ashland Capital’s private credit strategy is strategically positioned to capitalize on the disruptions within the banking sector, notably marked by the reduced banking activity in 2023, driven primarily by a historic surge in interest rates by the Federal Reserve. In the face of economic uncertainty and restricted commercial bank lending, a scenario traditional associated with tightened credit conditions, private credit emerges as a compelling solution. It provides borrowers with pricing certainty and agility, thereby contributing to the market’s notable expansion in recent years. The fund is uniquely structured to offer immediate distributions and liquidity flexibility for investors.
