2020 iREOC Virtual Summit

2020 iREOC Virtual Summit

October 27 - 28, 2020 | Virtual Platform


The 2020 iREOC Virtual Summit is a "members only" event designed to provide a platform for candid discussions among real estate operating companies, institutional investors and their investment managers on forming and running more profitable and productive REOC partnership investments.

This Summit will allow our members to gather virtually to discuss the latest trends, strategies and concepts creating the current landscape of REOC partnership investments.

And, as part of the IREI platform, this meeting will uphold a strict ratio of only two real estate operating companies to every one institutional capital provider. This ensures that attendees are able to really engage and get to know one another both on a professional and personal level. View our 2019 Attendees.

iREOC Testimonials

Russell Dixon, President & CEO, Managing Principal, RedHill Realty Investors

"iREOC’s inaugural gathering in May, established the primary bridge between real estate operators and the institutional investor community. That bridge enabled a dialog of understanding to commence—improving the quality and nature of this most important working partnership.”

Mitch Pleis, Investment Officer, California State Teachers' Retirement System

“The iREOC inaugural annual meeting was a great event for institutional investors who are engaged in directly investing in REOC partnerships or indirectly through their investment managers. It provided an open venue for leaders from across the industry to connect and candidly exchange ideas.”

 Scott Stuckman, Executive Managing Director, Global Investors Group, USAA Real Estate

“REOC partnerships have been a key component of most investor portfolios since the beginning of the institutional real estate investment industry, particularly in value-add and opportunistic strategies, but there’s never been an industry organization dedicated exclusively to advancing this dynamic segment of the market. iREOC is filling that void and the inaugural membership meeting in Park City set an exceptional standard for future events.”

Michael Levy, CEO, Crow Holdings

“Data, analytics and information management are increasingly critical business considerations throughout our industry. iREOC is providing an opportunity for institutional investors, their investment managers and operating partners to engage in meaningful discussions around systems and technology implementation. This will be core to our future success together.”

Anthony Frammartino, Principal, The Townsend Group

“The iREOC forum provided an open environment for idea exchange and the opportunity to meet with compelling operating partners.”
