WHO WE ARE, WHAT WE DO
Randy Whitehead & Company, L.L.C., is a private equity investment firm that is primarily engaged in deploying and allocating proprietary permanent capital across a spectrum of real asset and financial asset investments. We invest in real assets such as direct investments in real estate, mining/oil/gas interests, infrastructure interests, gold/silver/palladium and other precious and strategic metals. Our financial asset investments include such instruments as stocks, units, bonds, options and other derivatives, including non-control, minority interests and LP interests. Certain real assets also include opportunistic and value add investments in real estate development projects in progress, from time to time.
We primarily invest proprietary equity capital for our own account, and our principals’ accounts, and, to a lesser extent we may sponsor and invest with our select limited partners, from time to time, certain real property limited partnership investments where our affiliated company serves as the general partner. If you are an accredited investor and would like explore the possibility of investing with us, let us know by clicking here, and we will notify you when we sponsor our next project so that you may review an offering memorandum to determine if the investment right for your investment goals.
While most real estate investment managers produce adequate results relying on their financial skills, our firm, in addition to its requisite financial acumen, is endowed with the additional advantage of specialized direct development experience with the actual physical real estate. As investment managers with real-world development and project management experience, we can access opportunities and reduce development costs that securities investment managers cannot, thus providing a significant competitive advantage for our co-investment partners where skill and experience beyond finance theory are leveraged to increase asset value and return on investment.
CURRENT CYCLICAL FOCUS
As contrarian value investors, our investment and development focus will naturally change with the economic, real estate, and capital cycles. It is this complex cyclical interplay that makes us ultra-conservative, with our first principle being the preservation of capital by employing risk management techniques and investing with an adequate margin of safety. Of the investments we do target, we have taken a very opportunistic stance as our targeted investment assets remain too highly valued, i.e., multi and single family residential, as well as the public equity markets, thus we are not likely to deploy new capital in these areas unless a very attractive opportunity presents, and we are confident, based on our in-depth pre-acquisition due diligence, that such opportunities can weather the next phase of the cycles for these markets, macro-economic cycles, and other factors including the ongoing geopolitical situation, domestic political issues and the forthcoming presidential election.
Nevertheless, we are always on the lookout for investment opportunities. If you are an asset owner or manager looking to divest of real property or other real assets, we would like to hear from you. Please visit our Contact Page to connect with us and start a conversation.
OUR HISTORY
Our firm's history began in 1993 as an operating company that developed computer networks and converted office buildings into networked smart buildings. In 1997, we developed our first major call center. In 1999, we began developing global fiber optic networks. In 2010, we redomiciled our company to the state of Wyoming and reorganized as a holding company as we began to change our focus from operations to managing our investments. Not long after, we acquired a Wyoming-based gold, silver, copper, inter alia. mine through a subsidiary company as a direct investment in a mineral estate to hold and develop the property over the long term, and today it remains our largest property within the state.
