Nahla Capital

What Nahla Capital does

Nahla Capital is a New York-based real estate private equity firm founded in 2014 by Genghis Hadi (Co-Founder and Managing Principal) that invests in and develops luxury residential, hospitality, mixed-use, and select commercial assets in primary U.S. gateway cities — New York, Los Angeles, Miami, San Francisco, Chicago, Austin, and Philadelphia. The firm manages over $3 billion in equity assets under management plus a $305 million credit platform and has deployed approximately $600 million of cumulative equity since inception. Core products are ground-up and repositioned luxury condominiums developed in partnership with branded hotel operators (notably Rosewood Hotels & Resorts) and architect-led design (Tadao Ando, Thomas Juul-Hansen, Studio Sofield/Bill Sofield, Lucien Lagrange); current and recent projects include Rosewood Residences Beverly Hills, 1122 Madison Avenue, The Raleigh Miami Beach, 152 Elizabeth, 221 West 77th, 50 West Oak, 2000 Market Street, Austin Proper Hotel and Residences, and San Francisco Multifamily.

The firm monetizes assets through property appreciation, rental income, and exit proceeds, with revenue streams derived from asset management fees, performance fees on realizations, and credit platform income; luxury units are individually negotiated, with visible transaction values ranging from $16.3 million to $89.5 million. Nahla raises capital from global private clients and institutional investors and distributes product through exclusive sales representation agreements with Compass Development Marketing Group and direct developer sales offices. Its competitive position rests on branded-residential partnerships (Rosewood), an architect pedigree, and a track record of presale absorption that materially exceeds comparable luxury developments — Rosewood Beverly Hills achieved 50% presales (first LA condo to do so in over a decade) and 1122 Madison Avenue placed 18 of 26 units into contract within months of launch. The firm's team is lean (1-10 employees) and operates from a single New York headquarters at 645 Madison Avenue.
