About Latigo Group

The Latigo Group (TLG) is a privately-owned real estate investment and development firm headquartered in Los Angeles, established in 2017 by co-founders Mark Maron, Scott Whittaker, and Robert (Bobby) Daly, Jr. The company focuses on developing and investing in multi-family and mixed-use properties in strategic markets across the United States, with a significant presence in California and Florida. TLG's business model centers on two primary strategies: ground-up development of high-quality residential communities and the acquisition and renovation of older, stabilized properties with below-market rents.

The firm's investment thesis targets established communities with strong, long-term demand drivers and high barriers to entry. TLG employs a hands-on approach, managing the entire project lifecycle from asset acquisition, market research, and planning to entitlement, construction, and disposition. This comprehensive oversight allows for greater control over costs and quality, enabling the delivery of what it considers superior risk-adjusted returns for its investors, typically within a three to five-year holding period. Revenue is generated through the development and sale of properties, as well as rental income from its portfolio of managed assets.

A key part of TLG's strategy involves transforming underutilized properties into modern residential and mixed-use spaces. A notable expansion for the firm began in late 2016 with its first project in Florida, a market where it has since developed a substantial portfolio, including projects in Miami, Orlando, Naples, and Cape Coral. Noteworthy developments include the 333-unit Hillcrest Apartments in Thousand Oaks, CA, and several large-scale multi-family communities in Florida like the 384-unit Infield Apartments in Kissimmee and the 444-unit Hadley development in Cape Coral. The company often partners with institutional investors, family offices, and crowdfunding platforms like CrowdStreet to finance its projects, having secured significant financing for various developments, including a $182 million package for its Hillcrest Apartments.
