Vertically integrated real estate investor managing equity, debt, and development across NY metro
Castellan is a real estate investment and operations firm managing over $1B in equity and debt across residential and retail properties in the New York metropolitan area. The tech stack is operations-heavy (Yardi, Monday.com, Asana, Smartsheet, Procore) rather than analytics-focused, reflecting a business built on deal flow, construction, and property management execution. Active hiring skews toward operations (8 roles) and finance (6 roles), with projects centered on construction workflows, incentive tracking, and property pipeline management — consistent with internal pain points around permitting delays, materials coordination, and operational scaling.
Castellan Real Estate Partners is a privately held investment firm founded in 2009, headquartered in New York with 51–200 employees. The firm operates as a vertically integrated platform across equity investments, bridge lending, affordable housing, property management, and development, primarily targeting residential and retail properties in the New York metropolitan area. Since inception, the firm has deployed capital into equity and debt transactions exceeding $1 billion in aggregate market value. The organization operates internal platforms for transaction management, lending operations, portfolio oversight, and construction execution, supported by a 22-person hiring cohort focused on operations, finance, and construction management.
Primary tools include Yardi and Yardi Voyager for property management, Monday.com and Asana for workflow management, Procore for construction, QuickBooks for accounting, and Smartsheet for tracking. Communications run on Slack, Teams, and Google Workspace.
Current projects include SGIP (state incentive) pipeline tracking, California electrical panel upgrades, construction draw process optimization, property acquisition workflows, and maintaining a live database of U.S. energy incentive programs.
