Neighborhood Retail Shopping Centers
Who We Are
Wood Lake Holdings was founded in 2025 to acquire and operate quality, income-producing real estate. Our focus is simple: long-term value creation through disciplined investing, hands-on management, and alignment with investors.
What We Target
We build portfolios of high-quality neighborhood retail centers — the kind of retail that local communities rely on every day. These properties feature a durable mix of retail, dining, and essential services, and consistently deliver convenience and relevance.
Where We Invest
We concentrate on core-plus and light value-add assets in growth markets across Texas and the Southeast. These properties offer both stable in-place cash flow and the opportunity for upside through leasing, re-tenanting, or operational improvements.
How We Underwrite
Our approach is rigorous and data-driven. We apply:
Conservative input assumptions
Deep asset- and market-level research
Aggregation strategies to drive portfolio-level diversification and optionality
We avoid assumptions based on market froth or institutional herd behavior.
Why It Matters
Unlike ground-up development or deep value-add deals, our stabilized retail acquisitions:
Generate rental income immediately
Avoid construction and heavy lease-up risk
Provide downside protection with real cash flow from day one
How We Create Value
We identify and unlock value in under-managed, under-leased, or overlooked properties. Wood Lake's extensive market knowledge, strong broker relationships, and disciplined sourcing process enable us to act decisively when the right opportunities surface.
