Architects of Property Potential

Transforming Complexity into Opportunity

Aqestra is a Tampa-based investment firm focused on acquiring and repositioning undervalued commercial real estate, distressed properties, and entitled land.

We execute where others hesitate—turning real estate challenges into strategic value.

Core Investment Strategies

Distressed Acquisitions

We target chaos—tax liens, title issues, and neglected lots—and convert them into profitable acquisitions.

Core + Commercial Strategy

We acquire and reposition underperforming commercial properties, refinance, and hold for long-term value creation.

Land Entitlement

We entitle land for industrial, small bay, and self-storage projects—delivering sites ready for development or strategic sale.

How We Execute

Execution is where value is made. We don’t just buy—we solve, structure, and deliver.

Unlockable Upside

We identify overlooked or misunderstood assets—distressed, fractured, or trapped in title issues—and unlock their hidden potential.

Controllable Risk

We target deals where outcomes are driven by execution, not speculation—entitlement, lease-up, and legal resolution.

Strategic Timing

We buy with the exit in mind—refinancing to recover capital, holding for optimal value, and selling when timing aligns.

Operational Leverage

We invest where we can drive the outcome—through zoning, capital improvements, curative title, and hands-on management.

Who We Work With

We don’t chase every deal—we partner on the ones that align with our strategy. Here’s who we’re built to work with.

Property Owners in Distress

Inherited, tax-lien, or title-challenged assets—we specialize in resolving legal and ownership complexity with speed and integrity.

Landowners Seeking Entitlement Partners

Own raw or underutilized land? We’ll handle zoning, permitting, and entitlement to unlock real commercial value.

Brokers with Off-Market Opportunities

We move fast, close clean, and protect relationships. Bring us complex or value-add commercial deals across Florida.

Investors Seeking Strategic Operators

If you’re looking to partner on deals that require execution—not just capital—we’re open to conversations that align with our model.

Architects of Property Potential

Built on Strategy. Proven Through Execution.

At Aqestra, we believe the most overlooked real estate holds the most potential—if you know where to look, how to structure it, and when to act. We don’t speculate. We solve.

Whether it’s distressed property, entitled land, or underperforming commercial assets, we bring clarity to complex deals and turn them into long-term value.

This isn’t a volume game. It’s a discipline.
And it’s one we live by—deal after deal, property after property.

Redefining What’s Possible in Real Estate

We’re not here to follow trends—we’re here to reshape what’s possible in value-add real estate. Aqestra is building a portfolio, not a pipeline. And every property we touch proves that complex doesn’t mean impossible—if you know how to execute.
