DIRECT INVEST BELIEVES RESTORING COMMUNITIES IS BETTER THAN DESTROYING THEM.
Direct Invest is an experienced, impact focused, and sustainable real-estate development company with $3 Billion of projects currently underway. Direct Invest was formed to mine value in underappreciated, disinvested urban communities that are preferably near mass transit and anchor institutions while delivering attractive returns for its equity partners.
Direct Invest has a long-standing development track record of enhancing the economic, environmental, social and cultural aspects of all constituents.
DIRECT INVEST’S VISION IS TO CREATE RESTORATIVE HUMAN SETTLEMENTS THAT FOSTER SELF ACTUALIZATION AND A QUALITY LIFESTYLE.
Our mission as stewards is to create a fabric of resilient communities and opportunity structures by engaging sustainable resources and by leveraging key partnerships and innovative practices.
