Chris Culp founded The Excelsior Group in 2005 to develop, acquire, and manage multifamily real estate.  Since its inception, the company has earned a reputation for creativity, excellence, and integrity within the real estate industry.  Over the years, The Excelsior Group leveraged its reputation to start, support, and grow several real estate businesses including land development, commercial brokerage services, commercial property management, homebuilder lending and marketing and branding – all of which thrived on The Excelsior Group’s platform.

Chris has been active in commercial real estate finance, development, acquisition, and management for nearly 25 years.  In particular, he has a deep understanding of the complexities of multifamily development and operations, which has been key to The Excelsior Group’s success in identifying and financing exceptional development projects.  Under Chris’ leadership, The Excelsior Group has developed more than $2 billion in multifamily, mixed-use and commercial properties.
