Vice President, Portfolio Strategy & Analytics

The Amherst Group's companies are comprised of leading real estate investment and advisory firms with a mission to transform the way real estate is owned, financed and managed. Amherst leverages its proprietary data, analytics, technology, and decades of experience to seek solutions for a fragmented, slow-to-evolve real estate ecosystem and to materially improve the experience for residents, buyers, sellers, communities, and investors.

Today Amherst has over 1000 employees and $14.1 billion in assets under management.

Over the past decade, Amherst has scaled its platform to become one of the largest operators of single-family assets and has acquired, renovated, and leased more than 46,000 homes across 32 markets in the U.S. The firm delivers customized, stabilized cash-flowing portfolios of assets to its investors, wrapped in all the ongoing services required to manage, own, and finance the asset including property management, portfolio management, and a full capital markets team.

In addition to its single-family rental platform, Amherst’s debt business pursues two distinct credit strategies in mortgage-backed securities and commercial real estate lending. Over its 25-year history, Amherst has developed a deep bench of research and technology talent, and leverages data and analytics at every stage in the asset lifecycle to improve operations and preserve long‑term value for our investors and the more than 188,000 residents the firm has served.

Amherst is a vertically integrated real estate investment, development, and operating platform, offering solutions across the U.S. real estate capital stack, including single‑family residential (SFR), mortgage‑backed securities (MBS), and commercial real estate (CRE). Amherst is headquartered in Austin, TX and New York, NY, in the United States, with regional global offices located in India and Costa Rica. Underpinned by proprietary technology, battle‑tested data and mortgage model, and a deep understanding of U.S. real estate markets, Amherst’s vertically integrated platform seeks to provide investors a more efficient model to price, finance, and manage real estate with turnkey execution capabilities across the firm’s debt and equity strategies in the public and private residential, commercial, and mortgage‑backed securities markets.

The Amherst Merchant Banking business unit oversees investment management activities for Amherst, including the raising of new debt and equity capital, the formation of new ventures, the strategic acquisition and disposition of homes and the management and operation of Amherst’s portfolio investments. The Merchant Banking business unit collaborates closely with the other Amherst business units, including the Development and Operator business units, as part of the fully integrated Amherst platform.
