About S2 Capital: S2 Capital was founded in 2012 to build a national multifamily investment platform specializing in value-add properties.

S2 is comprised of affiliated businesses that have developed expertise in their respective domains but work closely together to achieve the execution of the business plan. With a vertically integrated approach, all individual operations' interests are aligned with the investment team. With full integration, S2 has been able to control projects from inception to completion, increasing efficiency and cost savings that have been passed along to investors in the form of increased returns. S2 attributes its success to its people, creating relationships with industry-leading investment and banking partners, staying disciplined in its investment strategy, and focusing on driving innovation, distinction, and excellence through all facets of multifamily ownership.
