Portfolio snapshot.
Residential
Sugar Porch, our residential fund, is officially one of the top ten largest homebuyers in the state of California and continues to grow its market share each year. By 2026 we will begin our expansion to new states.
Multi-Family
With in-house property management and brokerage support from Shelter Club, we are always seeking value-add opportunities within the long-term rental space. As interest rates potentially decrease, we will ramp up our apartment acquisitions.
Hospitality
Our hotel line, Motelier, is just getting started with our first project underway! With short-term rental regulation becoming more common and an aging majority of roadside motor lodges approaching their term of life, we will expand our presence in this profitable niche.

I’ve had nothing but great experiences after doing several transactions with Dwellist. Charlie and the team have always performed on the offers they commit to and have made my life way easier during the escrow process. They are my priority cash-buyer for SoCal.
