About Us
Our mission is to help you generate cash flow and build legacy wealth through large-scale residential and commercial real estate investing.
Rule #1 - Never lose
money.
Rule #2 - Don't
forget rule number 1.
- Warren Buffett
At Sunrise, we work hard for our money, and we know you do too. Capital protection is key to building legacy wealth. Instead of swinging for the fences with risk, we focus on recession-resistant asset classes that can perform in both good and bad economies.
Real wealth doesn’t happen overnight by taking outsized risk in an effort to generate lofty returns. Real wealth grows over time through efficient management of capital, buying right, and investing for the long term. These are the guiding principles for our team, and this philosophy helps us build legacy wealth alongside you and your family.
