Matthew Drouin

I am a full time real estate investor and broker. I own a portfolio of small apartment buildings, mixed use, and commercial buildings primarily located around the Southeast area of the city of Rochester, NY. Before I decided to branch out on my own, I was Director Of Operations for a large real estate development company. I was responsible for assets that spanned the entire real estate investment spectrum, from Self Storage, Mobile Home Parks, Apartments, Mixed Use, Industrial, Medical Office Buildings, Student Housing, etc. My specialization is asset redevelopment, asset re positioning, stabilization, turn around and lease up. Turning around distressed real estate assets is in my wheelhouse. I have done this on shoe string budgets as well. If you have a real estate problem, I have usually fixed it, or can figure out how to fix it. I believe in open architecture so I am an open book. Drop me a line if you want to chat. Experience: I have been investing in real estate for over 18 years in Rochester, NY. I currently own a mix of 176 residential and commercial units with about $2M a year in billable revenue. I am seeking to grow this to $10,000,000+ a year in revenue by buying a larger multi family or mixed use deal within the next 12 months. Real Estate Goals: To purchase a 75 - 150 unit apartment community within the next 12 months. Currently Seeking: We are seeking multifamily or mixed use deals with 75 to 150 apartment units or more in the Greater Rochester Market. We buy property in good locations and/or with good school districts. We prefer communities with basements and easy access to utilities. We do not like slab on grade construction. We prefer higher velocity markets with good absorption. We prefer to rent to demographics with higher retention trends.
