Testimonials

Jordan Rose

The Empire Group has a rare talent for turning difficult projects into enormous success stories. They are as sophisticated as a larger development entity but they are small enough to maintain the focus that allows them to consistently reward their investors.

David Hock

The Empire Group is positioned perfectly to offer all of the services and controls of some of the alternative investment market’s bigger real estate sponsors, but nimble enough to be opportunistic and selective in their strategies/projects.
