Services

Advisory: We serve as strategic partner, providing investors with solutions to optimize portfolio performance, evaluate market entry or exit, and structure investment strategies. Whether assessing individual assets or large-scale portfolios, our advisory services are driven by market research, data, discipline, and a commitment to capital stewardship.

Acquisitions: Our acquisition strategy is driven by deep market knowledge, local expertise, rigorous underwriting, and disciplined sourcing. We target undervalued, transitional, or misaligned assets in growth markets with strong fundamentals. PETRA manages the entire acquisition lifecycle, from origination and diligence to capital structuring, closing, operations and exit within an integrated framework that ensures alignment, speed, and executional certainty.

Development: PETRA originates, entitles, and delivers ground-up and value-add development projects across multifamily, mixed-use, and other residential real estate sectors. As a vertically integrated developer and operator, we control every phase of the development cycle, beginning with land acquisition and entitlement and continuing through construction, stabilization and exit. Our in-house management of each stage ensures consistent execution, operational efficiency, and alignment with investor objectives. We work collaboratively with municipalities, landowners, and capital partners to deliver assets that generate long-term performance.
