Rising Tide Partners buys and operates small apartment buildings in select New England markets.

We buy 2 to 50 unit, value-add Class B and C buildings that fall below institutional minimums and are run by local owners without professional management.

Approach

How we invest

We buy well, make targeted value-add improvements, and operate professionally. Our core market is Southern New Hampshire, along the I-93 and Merrimack Valley corridor and in the Dover and Rochester area, where small buildings rarely get institutional attention.

Buy at a sound basis

We underwrite on in-place rents and real expenses, and walk away when the numbers do not work.

Improve what matters

Targeted work on building systems and units, often in properties that have gone years without it.

Run it properly

Clear leases, consistent maintenance and timely reporting on buildings that have usually been managed informally.

Portfolio

We own multifamily in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, acquired between 2021 and 2025.
