Founded in New York City in 1982, the company's first transactions involved conversions of manufacturing/loft buildings into office space. Having sold Crown's portfolio before the late 1980's crash, the principals patiently waited for the correction to run its course. Beginning in Texas in 1990, assets have been carefully accumulated nationally, totaling 2,000,000 square feet today. the company's assets are in the eastern half of the country with particular emphasis on the Northeast region.


Crown Properties' mission is to selectively invest in and improve class A and B office buildings nationwide. The company's entrepreneurial flair is reflected in its value added approach to investing. Expertise lies in prudent capital expenditures, hands-on asset management and measured cost cutting. This powerful combination goes to the core of the company's philosophy. The enhanced cash flow as a result of this philosophy, combined with conservative debt levels, has served to enhance building values and hence catapult Crown Properties to the top tier of entrepreneurial owners.


Being a service business, our company is only as good as its people. Being also mindful that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, we have assembled a group of seasoned, forward thinking professionals. Each person is an expert in their field and has the skills and foresight to place us at the leading edge of commercial real estate firms.
