INVESTMENT SUPERVISORY SERVICES 
The Firm’s main business is to provide investment advice to various real estate 
investment joint ventures and funds which are called our clients.  Some of our clients will 
be limited partnerships or limited liability companies that are related to us because there
                                        
                                        
                                             
is common ownership and/or control between the Firm and the general partners or 
managers of those investment funds.  Until recently, certain clients were related to CMS 
Fund Advisers, LLC or MainLine Investment Advisers, LLC, both advisory affiliates, 
and the Firm provided advisory services in those instances under a sub-advisory contract.  
Some of our clients may be funds of funds meaning that they invest in other investment 
funds that may or may not be related to us.  All of our clients are expected to be closed-
end (meaning they do not accept additional subscribers after a stated offering period) 
investment funds with capital committed by investors that may be payable upon initial 
subscription, or may be drawn down and contributed over time to purchase investment 
securities or real estate and pay expenses.  Our clients are not expected to offer 
redemption rights or liquidity to their investors.  Please refer to a schedule of active 
affiliated investment funds that are clients, included at the back of this Part 2A of Form 
ADV. 
Our advice is considered to be investment supervisory services because we provide 
continuous advice based on the individual needs of each client.  We look for investments 
that meet the stated objectives, strategy and investment guidelines of each client.  We 
usually only recommend that a client buy a security or real estate asset to the extent it 
meets the client’s objectives, strategy and investment guidelines as stated in the client’s 
offering memorandum and partnership agreement or joint venture or other agreement 
negotiated directly with its investor(s).  We supervise the entire investment process and 
monitor the performance of each investment security or real estate asset held by our 
clients.  We make recommendations to buy, hold, finance and/or sell investment 
securities or real estate assets.  The final investment decisions are made by the general 
partners or managers of the various investment funds that are our clients.  As stated 
above, there may be common ownership and/or control between the Firm and most of 
those general partners or managers. 
We primarily provide advice with respect to real estate assets and equity securities in 
private companies, joint ventures and limited partnerships or limited liability companies.  
We may also offer advice with respect to the investment funds that directly or indirectly 
invest in real estate.  Occasionally we may offer advice with respect to a wide variety of 
other securities. 
We do not participate in wrap fee programs. 
The amount of client assets we are managing is $157.44 million as of valuations available 
April 29, 2024, however one account is not included in the calculation of Regulatory 
Assets Under Management (RAUM).  Our RAUM is $71.84 million as of valuations 
available April 29, 2024.
