Three Bulls Capital

What Three Bulls Capital does

Three Bulls Capital is a privately held real estate investment company founded in 2020 by Troy Williams (CEO) and Michael Liss (CIO), headquartered in Griffin, Georgia. The firm pursues a niche mill town workforce housing revitalization strategy, acquiring, renovating, and operating clustered single-family and small multifamily portfolios in former textile communities across the Southeast US. Its investment vehicles comprise Georgia Legend Fund I (closed-end, launched 2021, closed to new investors) and Legend Fund II (planned for 2026 with a broader Southeast mandate).

The company operates a vertically integrated platform anchored by two wholly owned operating subsidiaries — Three Bulls Property Management (full-service residential management including 24/7 emergency repairs and eviction handling) and Three Bulls Development & Construction (a licensed Georgia General Contractor providing renovation and value-add project management). Supporting the funds are fee-for-service offerings including Portfolio Turnaround Services (occupancy stabilization, debt advisory, lender negotiation, disposition planning), a self-serve Property Tax Appeals Service, and the Virtual Bull Pen investor portal providing property tax appeals and exit analysis tools. Technology is described as a PropTech and AI-driven property management platform automating tenant screening, leasing, rent collection, maintenance scheduling, and financial reporting, with an automated property tax appeal generator using assessment records and comparable sales.

Revenue is generated through fund management fees and carried interest on closed-end private equity funds, professional services fees from property management and construction, and transactional fees from the property tax appeals tool. Go-to-market combines direct sales to accredited investors, family offices, and institutional owners (enterprise field sales) with a community-led model partnering with municipalities such as the City of Griffin and Gordon State College. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. Operational footprint is concentrated in middle Georgia (Griffin, Macon, Barnesville, LaGrange) with the planned Fund II targeting expansion across the Southeast.

Closely matches Three Bulls' closed-end fund model, Accredited Investor focus, and tech-enabled investor portal (Virtual Bull Pen) approach.
