What We Do

End-to-end real estate capabilities, from finding the right asset to managing it at its highest potential. MDG is an integrated owner-operator with deep expertise across the full investment lifecycle.

01

Multi-Family Development

Full-cycle development of residential communities.

From site identification and entitlement through design, construction, and lease-up, MDG manages the entire development process. We partner with best-in-class architects, contractors, and consultants to deliver communities that stand the test of time.

  • Site acquisition and feasibility analysis
  • Entitlement and permitting
  • Architecture and design oversight
  • General contractor management
  • Lease-up strategy and execution
02

Property Management

Hands-on management built around the resident experience.

Our management philosophy is simple: treat residents like partners. That means 24-hour emergency maintenance, transparent communication, and on-site teams who are empowered to solve problems fast. We handle everything from rent collection and leasing to unit turns and capital planning.

  • 24/7 emergency maintenance response
  • Online resident portal and payment systems
  • Leasing and marketing management
  • Vendor coordination and procurement
  • Financial reporting and ownership communication
03

Value-Add Renovation

Strategic upgrades that improve NOI and resident satisfaction.

MDG specializes in acquiring underperforming assets and executing renovation programs that modernize unit interiors, improve curb appeal, and drive rent growth. We've renovated hundreds of units across our portfolio with a proven playbook that balances speed, quality, and cost.

  • Interior unit renovation (flooring, kitchens, baths)
  • Exterior and common area improvements
  • Capital expenditure planning and budgeting
  • Phased renovation to minimize resident disruption
  • Post-renovation leasing and rent optimization
04

Acquisition & Underwriting

Data-driven acquisition strategy across target markets.

We evaluate hundreds of potential acquisitions each year to find assets that align with our investment thesis. Our underwriting team brings deep local market knowledge, rigorous financial modeling, and a disciplined approach to risk, so we only pursue opportunities where we can add real value.

  • Market selection and competitive analysis
  • Financial modeling and pro forma development
  • Due diligence coordination
  • Financing and capital stack structuring
  • Closing and transition management

Why MDG?

Owner-Operator Mindset

We own what we manage. That alignment means every decision is made with a long-term, ownership perspective, not a fee-driven one.

Proven Track Record

Over a decade of successful acquisitions, renovations, and management, with a portfolio that has grown to 1,000+ units across four states.

Multi-Market Expertise

Deep relationships and market knowledge across Wisconsin, Kentucky, and beyond, enabling us to move quickly and decisively on the right opportunities.

Quality at Every Price Point

From affordable workforce housing to luxury riverside communities, we deliver quality finishes, responsive management, and genuine care regardless of rent level.

Let’s work together.

Whether you have a site, a deal, or a question, we’re always open to a conversation.
