We buy cash flow, then build more of it
Arka Partners is not in the business of predicting the market. We acquire assets that pay us today and have clear, controllable levers to pay us more tomorrow.
We don’t wait for appreciation to rescue a deal – we drive the growth ourselves or we pass.
What we avoid
1. Deals that only work if cap rates compress or rates fall on a schedule we can’t control.
2. Ground-up development or heavy repositioning that sends cash flow to zero for years at a time.
3. Over-leveraged capital stacks designed to maximize projections, not survivability.
4. “Story” markets and specialty assets we don’t fully understand, regardless of how glossy the brochure is.
200-10-1
Typically, for every 200 deals we look at, we underwrite 10, and can only make sense of 1.
Saying “no” is a core part of our strategy. A lot of deals look good in a spreadsheet. We care about what survives contact with reality.
