About Us

Our Story

Founded in 2010, Phelps Equity Partners began with a portfolio of single-family homes, driven by a vision to build long-term wealth through real estate. Determined to grow and scale our investment potential, we transitioned to multifamily assets, focusing on value-add opportunities in high-growth markets. As we expanded, we continued to identify and invest in high-potential properties, emphasizing long-term value creation. Our commitment to strategic growth remains at the core of our approach, consistently seeking opportunities that offer substantial returns and stability.

By strategically networking, assembling the right team, and aligning with trusted partners, we have successfully invested in 500+ multifamily units. Our commitment to hands-on asset management and strategic execution ensures that each investment delivers strong returns and sustainable passive income for our investors.

At Phelps Equity Partners, we don’t just invest in properties—we invest in communities, relationships, and long-term financial success.
