Woodcrest Capital

Woodcrest Capital, LLC is a diversified real estate, finance, oil and gas, and investment firm that acquires and develops real estate, makes distressed asset investments, and makes equity investments. The Woodcrest Capital team has unparalleled expertise in the establishment, evaluation and oversight of companies in a variety of industries. Since its founding in 1981, Woodcrest has completed investment transactions involving many types of developments, purchases and structured financings. Throughout its history, Woodcrest has been a developer and active purchaser of real estate and financial instruments, including undeveloped land, office buildings, shopping centers, apartments, warehouses, and other commercial properties. Its concentration on a variety of property uses has led to a flexibility adapting to the market and a unique ability to identify growth trends, capitalizing on the value they create.The size of typical transactions range from 3 to 25 million dollars and thousands of acres, to small opportunistic purchases, making Woodcrest’s interest and its activities without limits. Although its concentration and focus has been primarily in the Southern and Midwestern states, Woodcrest has also been very involved in opportunities which have become available in Oklahoma, Illinois, Arizona, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, Alabama, Kansas, Tennessee, Ohio, and Michigan. These development and acquisition activities have been instrumental in the growth and development of communities and the redevelopment of existing neighborhoods. We are always interested in well valued properties in growth areas to add to our portfolio. The complex process of developing new income-producing properties has become a strength and a growth area for Woodcrest. Its success has been attributed to the vision and real estate expertise of founder Jim Ryffel. Specializing in community and neighborhood lifestyle shopping centers, office buildings, and other commercial properties, Woodcrest has built properties throughout the U.S. and continues to develop. Woodcrest’s shopping centers meet the everyday needs of ordinary Americans in small towns, big cities, and growing markets from coast to coast. Benefiting from a talented in-house staff of construction professionals, project managers and construction superintendents, Woodcrest has an ability to move quickly and complete a project even on the shortest of schedules. The results have been an impressive portfolio of properties, such as the new “lifestyle shopping centers.” Additionally, Woodcrest’s development team has been successful in taking existing and older properties and completely renovating them, creating a revitalized project with new growth potential and a profitable future. Often, these overlooked opportunities can reward the ownership and their surrounding neighborhoods with new and exciting activity, as well as increased revenue and reduced maintenance costs. The vision and the talent to see these potential successes in often overlooked properties attributes to the fast growth in Woodcrest’s impact on the real estate scene. Often an undervalued activity, a key component to Woodcrest’s success is property management. Woodcrest not only owns, but also operates, leases, and manages its properties. With a talented team of in-house professionals, this component of the Woodcrest group oversees property maintenance, collects revenue, manages finances and expenditures, and coordinates activities on existing properties, including the finish-out construction or renovation of existing properties. Woodcrest’s fully-integrated operating platform are powerful advantages to our commitment to maximizing the value of every property in our portfolio. Although Woodcrest seeks working relationships with outside real estate brokers, the majority of its activities, both in sales and in leasing, has come from its own talented staff. Woodcrest has a team of real estate professionals who are constantly creating transactions for sales, acquisitions, and leases. These activities include the real estate properties owned by Woodcrest and its related partnerships, but also include many successful projects for other owners.
