MRA Capital Partners Launches Innovative Private Equity Fund in New Jersey
Early volatility in the stock markets in the stock markets this year had many investors reminded of the financial collapse of 2008. The modern investor must find innovative ways to protect from these types of market shocks, and there is no substitute for gaining advice from seasoned professionals.
One firm leading the way and making progress to instill investor confidence is MRA Capital Partners, which recently launched one of the most exciting private equity retail funds in the market. The strategic innovation that is present in the hybrid fund showcases the Sparta, N.J. firm’s professional pedigree. The news is quickly gaining the market’s attention, as it comes after MRA Capital Partners secured a partnership with US developer, WestView Real Estate Group.
The partnership confirms MRA stakeholder investment position in New Jersey’s closely-watched North Village at Sparta development, on Route 15. This partnership creates some attractive opportunities for investors for local residents, both to be an engaged member of the new community development and to benefit from the significant growth that is planned for the area.
Adam Anderson, CFP, CRPC Managing Partner of MRA Capital Partners explained:
“Typically, these types of investments were only accessible to very large investors and institutions. MRA is leveling the investment field and providing an avenue for the average accredited investor, to directly participate in real estate development projects as limited partners - meaning investors receive the benefits of directly owning the property, without any of the liability risk.”
The development is currently underway. North Village will be an 85-acre mixed-use development which will include a ShopRite, complementary lifestyle retail, sixty new rental apartments, a 70-unit assisted living facility operated by Chelsea Senior Living, 92 single-family homes, 60 townhomes, and additional amenities to serve the new community. The single-family home lots will be sold to and built by Ryan Homes – one of the nation’s leading US home builders.
Mark Konarski, CEO of Westview Group further explained:
“North Village is an important addition to our portfolio as we continue to focus on unique and transformative opportunities. The concept behind the Village is to create a sense of community, while providing amenities and jobs for the residents of Sparta and surrounding townships.”
These projects fall perfectly in line with the MRA Capital Partners goals of “Finding Opportunity and Delivering Results.” MRA is comprised of an expert team with decades of fiduciary experience, and the firm provides access to a comprehensive range of alternative investments. The latest endeavor in this time-tested approach can be found in the North Village project at Sparta, which is a showcase example of MRA’s capability in delivering exceptional results in private equity real estate investments.
Investment committee member and Director of Business Development & Investor Relations, Andrew Fletcher summed up the endeavor:
“We're both proud and confident to be associated with the North Village development and are searching for our next development project. We also offer a high yield asset-backed short-term loan fund that we expect to open to new accredited investors in August. These loans are secured by real estate and yield between 8% and 14%, which makes this portfolio pretty attractive to both growth and income investors.”
This represents an attractive opportunity for investors, given the elevated valuations that are currently seen in the stock market. At the same time, investors will be forced to navigate a financial environment characterized by rising interest rates at the Federal Reserve. For these reasons, the investment strategies from MRA Capital Partners look to be fully capable of generating substantial returns, and outperforming many traditional asset choices in the years ahead.
