Cowley Norberg Investments (CNI) is a real estate investment firm based in Phoenix, Arizona. Managed by two principals with over 50 years of combined industry experience, CNI focuses on raw land acquisition and entitlement. CNI was formed to provide a select group of qualified individuals and families the opportunity to invest alongside a well-established family office investment partnership. CNI’s approach to market investment is unique among land investment groups as a “deal-driven” firm rather than a “capital-driven” firm, rendering CNI a more credible source of investment opportunities.
CNI possesses no captive land or investment fund. Rather, CNI seeks out individual opportunities for investment; working as a small, experienced team of experts, who actively identify opportunities that are funded after completion of a rigorous diligence process. The second unique component of the investment ethos is that CNI (and related entities) typically contribute up to 25 – 50% of the capital for each acquisition. Investors have found this to be an attractive partnership where the manager is also significantly invested in the deal.
This model has proven quite credible and successful from inception and CNI continues to offer a limited number of qualified investors opportunities to invest in land and similarly attractive real estate-related investment opportunities in the Southwestern United States.
