ACRES Commercial Realty Corp. is a Maryland-incorporated, externally managed REIT that operates as a real estate finance company focused on commercial real estate (CRE) credit. The company originates, holds, and manages floating-rate CRE mortgage loans (including whole loans and A-notes) and also makes select equity investments in CRE properties through direct ownership and joint ventures. Portfolio construction and day-to-day investment management are provided by ACRES Capital, LLC, a middle-market CRE lender focused on U.S. property types such as multifamily, student housing, hospitality, industrial, and office. The business model seeks to generate shareholder returns through interest income and investment gains while using matched-term/matched-repricing borrowings to fund assets and manage interest-rate and liquidity risk.
