About
A Thoughtful and Conservative Real Estate Investor: Arek has built a career in real estate investing, but his success is rooted in a steady, conservative approach. His journey began when he was just 19, purchasing his first house—an investment that laid the groundwork for what would become a highly successful portfolio.
Today, Arek owns 16 apartment complexes and 13 mobile home parks, all achieved through careful, strategic buying and repositioning. His philosophy is simple: invest prudently, grow slowly, and never take unnecessary risks.
Arek’s interest in real estate began during his late teens, driven by a desire for financial independence and long-term stability. Unlike many of his peers who were drawn to more speculative ventures, Arek quickly recognized that real estate, when approached with caution and discipline, could be a reliable means of building wealth.
At 19, rather than chasing high-risk opportunities, he made the decision to purchase his first home, ensuring the deal was conservative and financially sound. From the outset, Arek’s investment strategy focused on sustainability rather than rapid growth. He chose properties that met his strict criteria for location, potential for appreciation, and manageable risk. His first purchase, for example, was a modest home that required minimal renovation but offered steady rental income—a perfect fit for his conservative, long-term mindset.
Maintaining control and reducing risk is a key element of Arek’s conservative investment philosophy and is his focus on in-house management. Rather than outsourcing property management, which can often lead to unforeseen challenges and higher risks, Arek has chosen to keep control within his team. This approach allows him to oversee every aspect of his properties’ operations, ensuring that each property is managed in line with his careful, risk-averse strategy.
In-house management allows Arek to mitigate potential risks by having a direct hand in tenant relations, maintenance, and the overall upkeep of the properties. By closely monitoring performance, he is able to make adjustments quickly and efficiently, preventing small issues from snowballing into larger problems. His focus on keeping operations streamlined and manageable further protects the stability and value of his portfolio.
Arek’s commitment to avoiding high-risk ventures has served him well, and he is building a legacy rooted in financial prudence and stability. Looking ahead, he plans to continue expanding his portfolio in a measured way, ensuring each new acquisition fits his conservative investment strategy. With his careful, deliberate approach, Arek is well-positioned for lasting success in the real estate industry.
