Paul Ruff

Mr. Ruff founded Triumph Real Estate Corporation (TREC) in Denver, Colorado in 1998 following 10-years of experience with other firms.  During the 2000’s, Triumph targeted primarily value-add and core-plus office and industrial acquisitions and ground-up development projects both for investment and for corporate build-to-suit. In 2013, Mr. Ruff created an investment platform exclusively dedicated to industrial distribution buildings to take advantage of opportunities arising from the then-emerging e-commerce industry.  After seeing significant early success, he formed Triumph Capital Group (TCG) in 2016 to brand and scale the platform for rapid growth.

Mr. Ruff’s responsibilities as CEO include the evolution and execution of the vision, overseeing the firm’s acquisition, development, asset management, capital formation, and property management activities.

Prior to TREC, Mr. Ruff was Asset Manager and Development Associate at Pacifica Holding Company, a boutique investment and development firm that grew into Denver’s largest commercial landlord before selling its $500 million portfolio in the late-1990’s.

Mr. Ruff and his wife Barb have raised two daughters and currently reside in Parker, CO.  He is passionate about service to others and is an Ordained Deacon in the Catholic Diocese of Colorado Springs, currently assigned to Ave Maria Parish in Parker.  He also has extensive experience in charitable activities and has recently formed a new non-profit service organization called the Charitable Facilities Foundation.
