FIDES Capital Partners, LLC ("FIDES") is pleased to announce that it has successfully advised its client, a national multifamily housing developer, on the formation of a strategic venture with an institutional multifamily property management company.  The strategic partnership will start with a $600 million portfolio, and will expand through co-development and investment opportunities throughout the U.S.  "Given my advisory role I had the advantage of independently seeing behind the curtain of both companies, and I understood the needs and strategic direction of each one.  I knew broaching the idea with each company would be a bit tricky because they knew each other, but they didn't know each other in the way that really mattered", said Greg Longoria, Managing Principal of FIDES.  "I've done a lot of M&A and strategic partnerships throughout my career, and to me this made perfect sense.  Ultimately, we structured a partnership that met the quantitative and strategic needs of both companies.  In a deal like this, it’s more about the future synergies than anything."
