Pilot Investments Boston

Pilot, a Massachusetts commercial real estate investment and brokerage company, was formed in 1998 to acquire and operate multi-family apartment, office, retail and industrial properties through private placement partnerships. Today, the company’s focus is most heavily weighted towards apartment properties. This is where Pilot sees the greatest demand from the tenant side, the strongest rent growth, and the most favorable financing options. Most importantly, it is the sector that is providing the largest margin of safety, while offering predictable returns for our investors.

Pilot is interested in assets that can be purchased based on existing cash flows, and that allow for significant upside upon the completion of property enhancements, and the leasing of vacant space at a competitive rent to similar properties within the immediate marketplace.

Investors

Pilot's partners consist of institutional investors, including pension funds and college endowments, as well as individual investors and family offices.
