All of Somera's principals have made meaningful personal investments in Somera's real estate investments, and their compensation is tied to the successful performance of the investments.

We structure our agreements with our operating partners so their financial interests are aligned with ours. Our operating partners are generally required to contribute a meaningful amount of capital to the investment. We minimize their upfront fees and offer incentive compensation to reward them for a successful investment. We structure our joint ventures so that Somera and our investors receive preferences on distributions of both income and capital appreciation.
