Unlocking Real Value with Proven Strategies
Blue Water Companies’ real estate platform makes strategic investments with fund managers, development sponsors, and general partners that have a track record of operational excellence and full deal cycle execution.
From multi-family projects serving communities with workforce and affordable housing needs to single tenant net leased retail, Blue Water Companies is agnostic across property types and asset classes. The firm remains flexible on a deal-by-deal basis with the ability to quickly act on debt or equity opportunities. We are limited only by a geographic preference for the Intermountain West and Midwest regions.
Our real estate work reflects founder Jett McCandless’s philosophy: invest in properties and partners who strengthen local communities and build lasting, meaningful value.
