We started as two seasoned real estate professionals and entrepreneurs who were tired of the volatility of traditional markets. Our founders, Desi Arnaz and Patrick Franz, two high-performance investors and capital strategists who became In-Laws, set out to create an investment fund that was recessionresilient, asset-backed, and emotionally aligned with family values. That’s why every dollar invested with Everly Mae is collateralized by real property, underwritten conservatively, and deployed with disciplined due diligence.
