  • Strategic Acquisition, Management, and Improvement of Land in Texas Metropolitan Areas

Ocania Capital acquires, manages, and improves strategic land assets with the ultimate objective of delivering (1) higher adjusted risk returns to our investors and (2) timely liquidity and land supply to the real estate market in metropolitan areas of Texas.
  • We love land.
    For more than 30 years, we have been transacting raw land and covered-land investments in Texas. We believe land’s relative illiquidity and reduced cash flow versus other real estate asset classes create an imperfect market that allows us to provide above-market returns via appreciation.

    We also believe land has two intrinsic advantages: (1) It is one of the safest hard assets to own, particularly in growing markets such as Texas metropolitan areas, and (2) it operates under its own economic cycle and makes it an extremely valuable portfolio diversification tool.
  • We love Texas.
    Texas offers growing demographics, a business-friendly culture, and relatively inexpensive real estate.

    From 2020 to 2030, Texas’ four major metropolitan areas, i.e. Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio, will grow by a combined 3.9 million people making it the largest pocket of growth within the United States. To put it in perspective, these four metropolitan areas will account for almost one-fifth of the entire population growth within the United States.
  • We love data analysis.
    Standard asset pricing methodologies such as CAP rates, discounted cash flows, P/E ratios and EBITDA multiples rarely apply when valuing raw land. As a result, land asset valuations usually rely very heavily on sales comparables.

    While analyzing potential assets, we combine traditional valuation approaches, projected demographic and infrastructure information, and millions of transactional data points collected throughout more than 20 years in these areas. We believe that our proprietary analysis approach allows us to better assess current trends, find acquisition opportunities and identify sites with the highest potential for appreciation.
