About Us

Since inception in 1982, Ilan and its predecessor companies have carried the dual mission of being aggressive market participants while never losing site of the founder’s moral standards and fiduciary responsibility. The company is focused on generating above market risk adjusted returns by leveraging its experience and market knowledge during the acquisition period, and relying on superior execution once the asset has been purchased.

Ilan Investments is the logical amalgamation of various multifamily assets, all made better by their combination under a single banner. The company is dedicated to developing deep and long standing relationships with its investors by always focusing on risk management, its fiduciary responsibilities and the tenants of proper asset management. To achieve these goals Ilan has brought together a market leading team and provided them with the necessary tools to develop a better apartment platform.
