About Us

In 2008, Berengaria Development emerged as the real estate arm of Marcus Investments, specializing in development services for retail companies throughout the United States. Over the years, we have transformed into a respected private real estate investment and asset management company. Our journey has seen us engage in real estate transactions exceeding $800 million, while meticulously building a portfolio with assets under management currently valued at over $400 million.
 
The year 2023 marked a significant milestone in our evolution, as Berengaria Development embraced a new identity: Marquee Capital. Under this new name, we continue to set benchmarks in the real estate sector. Presently, Marquee Capital adeptly manages over 2.5 million square feet of retail space, maintaining an occupancy rate of over 90%. Our portfolio also boasts a collection of senior housing assets, with 650 units that have been developed/re-developed, alongside various joint ventures with sponsors specializing in opportunistic investments.
 
At Marquee Capital, we’re committed to excellence and strategic growth. We use our expertise in real estate to create value for investors while contributing to the communities we serve.

Investment Philosophy

PROTECT CAPITAL

Focus on low-cost basis, responsible leverage, optionality and downside protection.

GENERATE CURRENT INCOME

Distribution of cash flow incrementally mitigates risk contributing to strong
risk-adjusted returns.

RECYCLE CAPITAL

Monetizing assets after creating value within them offers a chance to realize gains and mitigates risk through market cycles.

BE FLEXIBLE

Constantly adjusting as unique circumstances often produce investment opportunity.

DIVERSIFY

Pursue opportunities that avoid concentration of risk in a particular asset, tenant, geography or operating partner.

PROTECT THE REPUTATION

Off-market opportunities are the result of decades-old relationships and a reputation for acting with integrity and perseverance.
