Bruce Fraser
I ran a successful hedge fund for over a decade, including through the financial crisis.  In fact, we were at our all-time highs during the market troughs of 2009.  Successfully navigating such turbulent times earns incredible trust with investors.  Many of these investors were wondering what else I was doing with my own money – knowing that the Fed would be printing a ton of money for stimulus and asked my thoughts about investing in real estate.  I had formerly been invested in real estate – some SFRs and small multi with one business partner.  But based upon the research I was doing, I sold all of my investment property in 2007 – literally all of it.  Based upon my analysis, housing prices were still headed lower in 2008, so I waited to begin re-entering the market with new real estate acquisitions until 2011, when I formed Elkhorn Capital Partners. There was still only nascent bank lending post financial crisis, so our initial investments focused on all cash deals, including tax liens, hard money lending, and buying non-performing assets off of bank’s balance sheets.  After a couple years of this, banks were lending again and Elkhorn made the strategic decision to focus exclusively on multifamily, which has remained its exclusive focus for many years now.
