Invest Capital

What Invest Capital does

Invest Capital Group (ICG) is a privately held real estate investment management and development firm headquartered in Aventura, Florida, founded in 2005 by Gabriel Amiel (after the founder's 2018 transition from ESJ Capital Partners). The firm sources, evaluates, underwrites, develops, and manages income-producing real estate assets, primarily multifamily apartment communities under the Atlantica brand, charter and private schools, office buildings, and retail/light industrial properties. Since 2005, ICG reports it has assembled over 7 million square feet of real estate valued at more than $2 billion within high-growth U.S. markets, with Florida and Texas as primary geographies and additional exposure in New York, Alabama, and Massachusetts. The portfolio includes more than 3,000 residential units across named developments such as Atlantica at Alamo, Daytona, Westover Hills, Town Center I and II, Cape Coral, and Burleson, plus 40-plus charter, private, early-childhood, and university educational facilities concentrated in Florida.

The firm operates a vertically integrated real estate investment platform covering deal origination, acquisition underwriting, development, construction management, asset management, and investor reporting, supported by a leadership team that spans private equity (NextFund Capital Partners, ESJ Capital Partners, Real Fund Capital, Ginvest), development (Premium Development, architecture at Florida International University), tax/audit (Erica Cohen CPA, Kaufman Rossin), and corporate law (David Seifer). Construction and term financing is sourced through institutional capital markets partners such as JLL Capital Markets, which arranged $77 million for the Atlantica at Daytona development. There is no proprietary technology platform, data product, or software stack underlying the business; the firm's competitive basis is relationship-led deal flow, in-house underwriting expertise, and access to institutional debt.

Commercially, ICG generates revenue through ground-up development, repositioning of income-generating assets, construction, and ongoing asset management, distributing investment opportunities via a direct private-placement model to accredited investors, high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and investment funds through an investor portal on the company website and direct relationships. Pricing, fee schedules, and minimum investment thresholds are not publicly disclosed. Marketing relies on relationship-based channels, an investor portal, a LinkedIn corporate presence, and earned media in industry publications such as Multi-Housing News, with brand visibility supported by event sponsorships such as the SIGEF 2024 Women Summit in Malta.
