Acquisition Criteria

Greenlight. What we buy. If your property is green, call us.

A real estate owner's acquisition game

A clear view of what fits.

OWN LA seeks to grow its portfolio by acquiring office and commercial properties in the submarkets we know best. We work directly with motivated and institutional sellers, and we hold what we buy. We don't do ground-up development or out-of-state deals. Thinking clearly about what belongs in the portfolio, and what does not, is how we deliver superior investment returns.
