ABOUT
Our Story
Pioneer Acquisitions is a real estate investment firm focusing on cyclical opportunities. Founded in 2008 by veteran real estate professionals James Peterson and Jayson Lemberg, Pioneer was able to capitalize on the last crisis in the real estate markets to build a substantial portfolio of multifamily, office and retail properties. With further significant shifts in real estate investing fundamentals developing, Pioneer is well positioned to create wealth for those who recognize the value of managed real estate investments.
TRACK RECORD
During the last business cycle, Pioneer assembled a sizable portfolio by building a reputation of integrity and straightforwardness. After modernizing dozens of buildings and thousands of apartment homes, the vast majority of Pioneer’s assets were refinanced, providing a significant or full return of equity while allowing investors to receive distributions from operating cash flow indefinitely.
