BLACK SWAN STRATEGY

What Makes Black Swan Different

Investor First Model

We believe in a radical alignment of incentives that puts the investor first. How do we do this? We collect no fees whatsoever. No acquisition, asset management, loan recourse, capital event, or disposition fees. We believe in putting the needs of the investor first.

Infinite Rate of Return

For our Legacy Funds (Fund I, II, III, IV), when all invested capital is returned, investors stay in the deal indefinitely. We long-term hold assets to benefit from cash flow, debt paydown, appreciation, and tax advantage. Despite having $0 left in the deal, investors get returns for years and years to come.

Vertical Integration

Black Swan is vertically integrated with our property management company, Black Swan Living. That means we own and manage everything from acquisition all the way down to replacing a lightbulb. Our goal is to make our buildings as profitable as possible by eliminating excess costs in all aspects of asset and property management.

Blue Ocean Strategy

As per the Blue Ocean Strategy by W. Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne, “The only way to beat the competition is to stop trying to beat the competition.” This philosophy perfectly applies to passive real estate investing. We favor investing in blue ocean markets that are yet to be fully explored and exploit the opportunities that come with it.

Rochester, MN, and Tacoma, WA, are two blue ocean markets that offer investors attractive opportunities for passive real estate investing. 

Both cities have growing economies, low unemployment rates, and are home to several renowned institutions and companies. Rochester is the birthplace of the renowned Mayo Clinic, which attracts thousands of patients every year and is the city’s largest employer. Similarly, Tacoma has a thriving economy driven by sectors like healthcare, education, and military.
