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 the range of the business we’ve built, the range of skills each partner brings, the range of deal types we pursue, and the range of opportunities we’re willing to consider.
We built Range around a simple gap in the market. Large firms often apply rigid processes across massive portfolios, while smaller local firms may not have the same depth of underwriting or deal experience.
Range was built to operate in between those two models: institutional-quality underwriting and execution, combined with the hands-on attention and relationships of a smaller, entrepreneurial team.
We stay disciplined about the opportunities we pursue, the capital we raise, and the partners we work with. The goal isn’t to be the biggest. It’s to be thoughtful about where we invest and deliver strong execution from acquisition through completion.
WHAT WE DOWe let results speak for themselves.
Range Group develops, owns, and operates real estate across Chicago and the surrounding region.
On the development side, we’re asset-class agnostic. We’ve worked across multifamily, mixed-use, retail, commercial, and industrial, evaluating each opportunity on its own merits rather than forcing it into a particular category.
We also manage third-party properties, with a focus on industrial, office, and small retail centers within roughly a two-hour radius of Chicago. Whether we own the property or manage it for someone else, we hold ourselves to the same standard.
But our biggest advantage isn’t the number of properties we’ve developed or managed. It’s our reputation.
We do what we say we’re going to do. We communicate honestly with our investors and partners. We stay involved in the details. And we let the 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.
