Maroon and Gold Investments

What Maroon and Gold Investments does

Maroon and Gold Investments is a women-owned private real estate investment firm founded in 2015 by Erica Meitz and headquartered in Minnesota. The firm acquires, develops, and operates a portfolio spanning multifamily value-add assets (The Burgundy in Dallas, Midtown in Memphis), residential developments (Trailside Estates, a 20-lot community in Pequot Lakes, MN), assisted living (Spirit Valley in Duluth, MN), commercial property (Rolling Oaks Commercial Park in Austin, TX), and hospitality (Heath's Resort on the Whitefish Chain of Lakes, MN, operating since 1938). Through its MG Development subsidiary, the company executes ground-up construction and development projects alongside its acquisition activity.

The firm's core technology is a web-based investor portal powered by Agora Real, used to onboard and manage accredited investors; it discloses no proprietary technology, APIs, or AI/ML capabilities. Revenue is generated through real estate investment returns (rental income, property appreciation), development and construction fees, and resort operations, rather than recurring SaaS or fee-based management income at the firm level.

Maroon and Gold targets accredited investors exclusively via Regulation D private placements, with investor onboarding gated by SEC accreditation thresholds ($1M net worth excluding primary residence, or $200K/$300K income). The go-to-market is sales-led, combining a direct sales team (Kyle Narveson), an investor relations function (Shamra Ray), marketing (Holly Lee), and content/podcast outreach (CEO appearances on The Passive Real Estate Podcast). Tenants and resort guests form a secondary, non-paying customer base occupying the firm's owned and operated properties.
