About Koch Real Estate Investments
Koch Real Estate Investments is a real estate operator headquartered in Wichita, KS. Koch Real Estate Investments operates in Dallas, Texas, Las Vegas, Nevada and Nashville, Tennessee. Its investment focus is on Affordable Housing, Condominiums and Data Centers.
Koch Real Estate Investments (KREI) is a Dallas, Texas-based private real estate investment firm operating as the principal real estate investment arm of Koch Industries (Koch, Inc.). Founded in 2008, the enterprise functions under President Jake Francis, deploying patient, institutional capital into real estate assets and operating platforms. The firm executes an opportunistic, capital-agnostic investment strategy across asset classes, geographies, and capital structures. Its capabilities cover direct equity, preferred equity, mezzanine debt, structured financing, and corporate venture investments. Rather than adhering to rigid single-sector parameters, KREI provides flexible financing solutions in partnership with established management teams across multi-family, hospitality, mixed-use, office, and industrial properties. The organization deploys capital on a national scale across primary and high-growth markets in the United States. Key transactions include a $32 million equity investment as part of a $206.4 million financing agreement with Ladder Capital Corp to support transitional and land loans, as well as partnering with Fontainebleau Development to acquire and secure $2.2 billion in construction financing to complete the $3.7 billion, 67-story, 3,644-room Fontainebleau Las Vegas resort and casino.
