Hermitage by MBF is a family-owned and operated real estate investment company with a single-minded focus on funding best-in-class multifamily developments across the Southeastern United States. Priority asset classes include, but are not limited to, workforce housing, student housing, and market-rate rental communities.

Led by Miami’s Fernandez family, Hermitage counts on decades of experience in the private equity sector. Leadership includes a diverse team of entrepreneurs and operating executives, with proven track records in identifying untapped investment opportunities and collaborating with owners, developers, and other stakeholders to achieve mutual success.

The company and its affiliates oversee an investment portfolio across the Carolinas, Florida, Georgia, and other growing markets across the Southeast.

Strong demographic growth in the Southeast and Sun Belt has created record-breaking demand for high-quality, accessible housing.

Unlike other larger real estate investment companies active in this space, Hermitage by MBF looks at every deal through the lens of its end users – working to implement the quality-of-life and infrastructural improvements our residents need and desire while maintaining reasonable costs.

By investing in underused or overlooked properties, our goal is to add much-needed quality housing and reinvigorate entire communities while driving outsized returns to our partners and those communities.

Hermitage places a heavy emphasis on long-term partner relationships. These connections go far beyond the bottom line, with Hermitage teams ready to invest the time and effort needed to achieve winning outcomes.
