Networks.

Satellite, fiber, power and logistics networks all depend on physical sites to operate.

Land.

Sites that are zoned, powered and accessible near population centers are limited and difficult to replicate.

Gateway.

We invest at the intersection, acquiring, developing and managing the real estate that infrastructure, industry and communities require.

Investment Strategy

Gateway invests across three complementary sectors, each anchored by well-located land that is difficult to replicate.

Infrastructure

Long-term ground leases to satellite and communications operators for gateway and ground-station sites.

Industrial

Acquisitions of industrial outdoor storage yards and small warehouse facilities, and selective ground-up small-bay development, including co‑GP participation alongside institutional partners.

Residential

Acquisitions of stabilized residential communities, including manufactured housing communities, managed by Gateway Property Management.

Property Management

Gateway Property Management is the firm’s residential property management affiliate, serving third-party owners and Gateway’s own residential investments. Its services include owner-side interim management for communities transitioning to redevelopment. Operating the assets it invests in keeps Gateway’s management aligned with ownership.

The Firm

Gateway Real Assets is a vertically integrated real estate investment, development and management company based in West Palm Beach, Florida. Gateway’s platform is dedicated to acquiring, developing and operating real assets in the industrial, infrastructure and residential sectors, with property management provided through its affiliate, Gateway Property Management. The firm’s perspective, informed by its principal’s background in institutional real estate development and investment, positions Gateway as a disciplined partner to landowners, tenants and residents, capital partners and intermediaries.

Gateway takes its name from its first investment: a ground lease for a satellite gateway station, the facility that connects satellite networks to terrestrial infrastructure. That transaction launched the firm and anchors its portfolio.
