Our Philosophy and Commitment

Shea Real Estate & Investment Group (SRE) knows that economies ebb and flow in cyclical fashion and market performance of investments in all sectors change over time. Nothing stays up, or down, forever. It's the natural course of things.

While some investors focus attention on a single sector of the total market, most prefer a degree of diversity in their portfolios. The real estate sector is a sound, safe investment in any economy; as long as opportunities are exploited in the right segment at the right time.

Shea Real Estate & Investment Group understands this and seeks out investment opportunities in the real estate sector that fit prevailing economic climates. It is our specialty.

To qualify at SRE, an investment opportunity must:

• Make sense in the current market environment
• Produce a solid return on investment
• Provide confidence that monies are safe and hard at work

That is our commitment to all investment clients.

Areas of Expertise

SRE is a full service real estate sales company. Clients range from traditional first-time home buyers and motivated sellers to short sales, foreclosures and bank owned (REO) properties. We also offer two distinct operations geared toward the real estate investor:

• Investment Opportunities Through Existing Properties
• Real Estate Development Opportunities

Investment Opportunities Through Existing Properties

SRE offers services to investors searching for existing properties to add to their portfolio. The San Diego real estate market is full of great opportunities to buy and lease or otherwise hold properties as an investment.

Experienced in short sales and bank owned properties; Shea Real Estate & Investment Group excels at marrying investors with sellers in mutually beneficial unions. Of course, we also know of property owners motivated to sell for myriad other reasons as well.

Real Estate Development Opportunities

Typical investors look to safeguard their money and build wealth through passive growth and income. Today’s real estate industry presents profound challenges, yet solid returns, for those who understand the market. Shea Real Estate & Investment Group (SRE), along with business partner New Pointe Communities (NPC), offers unique and profitable real estate development opportunities to investors. SRE's performance has proved itself again and again as has NPC; with twenty three years of real estate development and home building experience.

Identifying Investment Opportunities

SRE locates single or multi-lot locations where NPC builds relevant homes. Finished properties are filled with standard green features other builders typically offer only as upgrades. We have devised a formula that works and is replicable across a variety of investment opportunities and budgets.

Our Investment Packages contain information to match opportunities to individuals. It includes:

• A Property Investment Proforma that outlines a detailed financial analysis of the investment.
• A Community Market Report that outlines market conditions in a specific area or areas

Once a specific opportunity is selected, investors receive:

• A proposed LLC Agreement outlining the member participation.
• A complete line item report of projected construction costs for the project
