Amherst is on a mission to transform the way real estate is owned, financed and managed. We believe that traditional real estate has too many misaligned layers chipping away at an asset's value. By leveraging our proprietary data analytics, technology, and decades of experience, we build businesses that up-end those markets. Our vertically integrated platform delivers the services needed to buy, own, finance, sell, and lease and manage real estate in-house. The Amherst team includes expert investment management, portfolio management, and asset management teams navigating real estate and capital markets along with experienced construction, maintenance, resident experience, and leasing teams executing in the field. Our businesses address markets that are ripe for disruption. We have built a scaled single-family rental platform, a direct-to-consumer home sales platform, and a debt platform, which pursues two distinct credit strategies in mortgage-backed securities and commercial real estate lending. We use technology and business intelligence at every friction point to improve operations and preserve more value for our customers – whether they are institutional investors or residents looking to rent or buy a home.
