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.
