Six Acre Capital is a real estate developer, owner and operator launched in 2020 by Jake Borden and Mark Lansman. Leveraging the principals’ prior institutional experience coupled with a boots-on-the-ground operational mentality, the primary focus for the platform is acquiring, repositioning, and developing multifamily and mixed-use assets. Implementing a hyper-focused geographic investment approach, Six Acre pursues opportunities strictly in Philadelphia and the Tri-State Region, allowing for hands-on execution.
Six Acre’s Principals were most recently Vice Presidents with NYC-based Churchill Real Estate Holdings. At Churchill, the Principals closed over $1.5bn in debt transactions and equity investments. This included spearheading development efforts for NYC development projects and leading acquisitions/execution of several multifamily and mixed-use properties. The Principals were also an integral part of the company’s structured credit originations platform, where they executed over 30 acquisition, bridge, and construction loans, and purchased non-performing, defaulted notes during their time with the firm.
