Urban Standard is a real estate investment company with three lines of business: ground-up development, renovation of existing properties & short term financing solutions. The three verticals do not exist in a vacuum, but rather speak to each other amplifying our knowledge of each. Our experience investing on the equity side helps us make informed lending decisions as we can easily put ourselves in the shoes of our borrowers.

We are one of the few investors in our space with quickly deployable, committed capital allowing us to seize on opportunities beyond the reach of our competitors.
‍
The foundations of our strategy are predictive asset identification, thorough underwriting and quick execution. We are immersed in the real estate landscape—not just professionally, but also personally. Our founder and senior investment professionals are native New Yorkers with an understanding of its minute complexities and neighborhood trends. Whether as the developer or lender, we have a passion for transforming properties into desirable real estate assets for tenants and investors alike.

As investors and developers, we’re responsible risk-takers, with exacting attention to detail.  We are decisive, forward thinkers determined to turn new opportunities into new successes.
