Our Approach
44 Greenwich advises private and institutional capital across real assets and select alternative investment strategies.
​
The firm structures and executes high-value real estate transactions, joint ventures, and capital formation mandates where discretion, speed, and structural flexibility materially influence outcomes.
​
In addition to principal-level real estate execution, the platform supports cross-border investment strategies in private credit and differentiated alternative asset opportunities.
​
Engagements are referral-driven and mandate-specific. We prioritize pricing discipline, counterparty quality, and capital alignment over transaction volume.
*Regulated activity is executed through licensed brokerages, operating partners, or registered intermediaries, as applicable. 44 Greenwich is not a brokerage firm.
​Platform
Residential Advisory and Execution
Selective buy-side and sell-side advisory for prime residential assets where process control and execution materially affect outcomes. Residential brokerage services are executed through ONE Sotheby’s International Realty.
Commercial Advisory & Land Acquisition
Strategic advisory for land acquisitions, assemblages, and income-producing commercial assets. Focus includes site evaluation, entitlement analysis, and partnership structuring with developers, operators, and specialist partners.
Alternative Capital Strategy and Selective Co-Investment
Advisory on structuring joint ventures, capital formation, and investor positioning. The firm participates selectively through proprietary co-investments, where aligned with client objectives. Engagements include commercial assets, development opportunities, alternatives and high-value residential projects.
