ABOUT JOHN SCHMELZLE

Real Estate Development, Investment and Asset Management with a successful track record of multi-family, office, retail, and mixed-use investment and development. Our development experience extends throughout the entire life cycle of real estate development- from the acquisition of raw un-entitled land to site and building design development, financial analysis, construction estimation, government approvals, civil construction, vertical construction, building lease up and ultimately the sale of the completed, income producing project. We invest across a broad range of product types and utilize our experience as hands-on, boots on the ground operators to add value. Sound underwriting and strict due diligence is the key to this approach. We take positions up and down the capital stack while strictly adhering to our philosophy of taking only those positions which allow us to control our own destiny. We typically seek niche opportunities created by temporary capital dislocations, perceived complexity, or an inefficient sales process - including off market deals and distressed debt acquisitions from financial institutions and government agencies including HUD and FDIC. In addition to real estate, Schmelzle & Associates has positions in franchised hospitality concepts, mining and oil/gas exploration. Schmelzle & Associates has also served as a court appointed Receiver to manage the assets on behalf of third parties involved in litigation.
