Approach
Long-hold conviction,
institutional rigor.
Dent Capital exists to compound patient capital in a narrow set of strategies where we have edge — Florida real estate, private deal investments, and balance-sheet lending.
Our thesis
“Great real estate compounds quietly for those willing to own it long enough to be embarrassed by their entry price.”
— Dent Capital
Philosophy
01
Long-hold ownership
We buy assets we expect to own for a decade or more. Time is our primary source of edge — we don't need to sell to be right.
02
Disciplined underwriting
Every deal is stress-tested against a bearish base case. If it doesn't work with conservative assumptions, we pass.
03
Operator-first
We back proven operators and provide the balance sheet, patience, and structure they need to execute without pressure.
04
Aligned capital
Our own capital sits alongside every investment. We eat first, and we eat last — economics matter less than alignment.
Criteria
What we look for.
A tight box that we say no to often — because saying no is the job.
Asset types
Multifamily, industrial, retail, mixed-use, and select operating businesses.
Check size
$2M – $25M per transaction; larger through partnership.
Capital solutions
Direct equity, joint ventures, preferred equity, balance-sheet loans, and co-investments.
Geography
Florida, with emphasis on the Gulf Coast and central Florida corridors.
Hold horizon
10+ years. Permanent capital by default.
What we avoid
Merchant-model flips, ground-up spec at cycle peaks, and misaligned promote structures.
Get in touch
Selective by design.
Aligned by conviction.
We partner with operators, brokers, and principals on Florida real estate and private deals that meet our long-hold criteria.
