What We Do

Value-Add Multifamily Investing

We work with partners and investors to buy, renovate, and manage apartment buildings in the San Francisco Bay Area. Through our value-add strategies, we create incremental cash flow and value for investors, while building and improving communities for residents.

Acquire

We leverage deep broker relationships and rigorous underwriting to source under-market-priced assets. This means we start your investment from a position of advantage.

Renovate

With deep construction experience, we execute renovations efficiently and increase cash flow, while meaningfully enhancing the living experience for our residents.

Refi or Sell

We tailor each deal strategy dynamically — either with a cash-out refinance to maximize distributions and long-term cash flow, or we sell to lock in the value we created.

Our Approach

Rooted in the Bay Area

Prime Locations

We target walkable, amenity-rich, and transit-oriented neighborhoods that offer strong growth potential. These locations not only make great investments, but also foster healthy, vibrant lifestyles for our residents.

Community Enrichment

We partner with housing non-profits, coordinate neighborhood cleanups, and host educational and networking events — strengthening the communities where we invest.

Our Home

Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, we invest where we live. We're committed to growing, supporting, and improving our local market through thoughtful real estate development.

The Story Behind Kenji Capital

In 2016, I bought my first fixer-upper property 2,000 miles away, sight unseen from my home in the SF Bay Area. Let's just say reality hit fast: unpredictable tenants, shoddy construction, and a project that quickly spiraled out of my control.

That experience taught me a crucial lesson: scaling real estate development and success isn't about going at it alone. It's about strategic partnerships, leveraging strengths, and learning from every challenge.

That's why I started Kenji Capital — named after my grandfather and my son — where we buy, renovate, and manage multifamily properties with investors and partners who share our vision. The name represents the bridge between generations: honoring the values my grandfather instilled in me while building something meaningful for my son's future.

Beyond deals, I'm also building a thriving Bay Area real estate community of 1,300+ members, connecting people, sharing insights, and growing together.

At Kenji Capital, our mission is to strengthen local communities by building and managing housing people are proud of, helping our partners build long-term wealth, and giving back in the neighborhoods where we operate.

"Real estate works best when everyone wins — tenants, investors, and the communities we serve."
