Our Team
At HighMark Equity Partners, our goal is to protect investor capital while achieving maximum performance and value for each property. Our team members take a hands-on approach to the due diligence process, and we coordinate professional onsite inspections, negotiate the best possible property price to benefit our investors, and we request proposals from multiple lenders to secure the best possible financing. Then after we close, we manage the properties ourselves! Yes, we have skin in the game! Get to know us, you'll be glad you did!
