Investors are both national and local, homeowners and tenants. Our goal is to blur the lines of ownership while maintaining a common objective.
What was once a sleepy working class neighborhood has reinvented itself as one of the most dynamic areas in the greater metro. Vintage single family homes and multifamily properties have been thoughtfully restored while also reflecting the modern and creative aesthetics of their residents. Additionally, over 600 high end units have been added in new modern apartments buildings to add variety of housing stock. While other high profile cities have seen their property values begin to falter, Milwaukee has remained remarkably resilient, posting the 4th highest home value growth rate of the largest 100 MSAs from Nov 2022- Nov 2023. Bay View has experienced the strongest housing appreciation of all city neighborhoods.
Bayview occupies a mere five square miles but is enviably positions in the Milwaukee metropolitan area. It is located along a continuously protected shoreline of Lake Michigan, the 4th largest freshwater lake in the world, just minutes south of the city center and north of the international airport. The primary north/south freeway creates its western border with access to Chicago, 90 minutes south. High-speed ferry service across the lake departs from the northern edge of the neighborhood.
Bay View plays an outsized role within Milwaukee proper due to its location, commercial development, community institutions, and support of entrepreneurship. While national retailers support from the edge of the of the neighborhood, local businesses thrive on a commercial corridor that runs through the its heart. Multiple small business incubators operate and prominent parks host events and markets that draw well beyond its borders.
