OUR STORYIt's called Range
for a reason.
Not a metaphor we bolted on after the fact; the name is the firm.
Valuation, deal law, brokerage, ownership — three very different training grounds, held by three people instead of three departments.
Multifamily, mixed-use, retail, office, industrial — we're asset-class agnostic on what we develop, and deliberately more focused on what we manage for others.
Investment, development, property management. We work the full range of the real estate lifecycle, not just one slice of it.
HOW WE STARTEDThree resumés. One decision.
Range Group was founded in 2021 by Jared Rubin, Seth Halpern, and Brett Katz. The name reflects a few things: the range of skills each partner brings, the range of deal types we pursue, and a shared love of the mountains and the outdoors.
We built Range around a simple gap in the market. Large firms apply rigid process across huge portfolios. Most local boutique shops can't match that underwriting depth or deal experience. Range fills the space between institutional-quality underwriting and execution, delivered with the hands-on attention of a small, relationship-driven team.
WHAT WE DORange Group develops, owns, and operates real estate across Chicago and the surrounding region. We're asset-class agnostic on the development side, having worked across multifamily, mixed-use, retail, commercial, and industrial. We evaluate every deal on its own merits instead of forcing it into one category.
We also manage third-party properties, with a specific focus on industrial, office, and small retail centers within roughly a two-hour radius of Chicago. Every property we manage, owned or third-party, gets the same standard of care.
Above all, our edge is our reputation. We do what we say we'll do. We communicate honestly with investors. We let results speak for themselves
HOW WE ARE DIFFERENTInstitutional habits. Boutique attention.
OUR VALUESWe run every address like it's ours.
We say what we're going to do, then we do it, which is just execution without the poster on the wall. We'd rather tell an investor or a tenant the truth about a deal before they have to ask for it, because transparency has always cost us less than the alternative eventually does.
We say what we're going to do, then we do it. No poster on the wall, no mission statement doing the work a follow-through call should be doing.
You hear the truth about a deal before you have to ask for it — including the months the number isn't the one we hoped to send you.
The person who underwrote your deal is the person who answers for it. Three principals, no committee to hide behind.
Built around people before spreadsheets — the kind that are still standing long after any one deal has closed.
