"Great communication and track record"
Mark is a stand-up guy—his communication is totally transparent, and he always makes time for a quick call to clarify any questions I have. That commitment to staying connected, combined with a solid track record, makes him someone you should consider investing with.

"SMK Investment Review"
I have invested in several of SMK’s offerings. What has always stood out is their deep due diligence and conservative underwriting — they thoroughly vet every deal before bringing it to investors. The team’s expertise and focus on diversification across different asset types has provided dependable performance with a strong focus on capital preservation. Communication is excellent — transparent, timely, and easy to understand. Mark is someone you can trust — he operates with integrity, transparency, and genuine care for his investors. - Ben H

"My Excellent Experience with SMK"
Over the last 12 years I have invested with a handful of partners. In general, I am very skeptical and cautious, and it takes me a while to be open to working with a new GP. So far, my experience across the various partners I've met and work with has varied significantly... SMK has consistently been the best of those experiences. Their deal structure, communication, and execution have been extremely consistent. While not everything has gone perfectly (when does it ever), they have been transparent and honest through it all. Every investment with them I have made was made with full understanding of the risks and upsides, and so far, I have definitely seen more upside. For reference I have made 5 investments with SMK. 1 has finished above expectations, 3 are performing at or above expectations, and 1 has been below expectations but is improving. I have also seen a bunch of comments on this site about K1 timing. I personally don't think that matters as much as actual performance. For what it's worth, I file in October every year because some partners come down to the wire, but I've never worried about SMK In the current environment where overpromising or outright scams seem to all too common, Mark at SMK has been a consistent and reliable partner. I am grateful to have found SMK, and I look forward to our work together in the future.

"Average performance and VERY LATE K1s"
I've been invested in a fund since 2022 and performance has been ok, though less than proforma projections. Communication and reporting are fine, however a main complaint I'd have would be the very tardy delivery of K1s ! The last 2 years received in mid-Sept and in Aug the year(s) prior.
SMK Capital Management
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate your recognition of the investment performance and our communication efforts, and we completely understand your frustration regarding delays in K-1 delivery. While the vast majority of our investments issue K-1s on time, a few of our operating partners have experienced delays over the past couple of years. These delays are ultimately outside of our control, but they have stemmed from organizational transitions such as accounting firm changes or structures involving institutional equity partners who do not require K-1s. Even so, we recognize the impact this has on our investors, and we continue to work closely with our operating partners to improve the timeliness of tax reporting wherever possible. Since this review was submitted anonymously, we would welcome the opportunity to connect with you directly and provide a detailed update on the Fund you are invested in. Based on the 2022 vintage you referenced, the Fund is now entering the next phase of the business plan as value-add initiatives mature. For example, several underlying assets have recently completed successful refinances after meaningfully increasing their value, and investors will be receiving a significant distribution in the coming weeks - stay tuned! We truly appreciate your partnership and your feedback. Please feel free to reach out to our team anytime so we can address your questions personally and ensure you continue to feel confident in your investment experience with SMK.

SMK Capital ManagementSMK Capital Management Overview
Founded in 2010 by the Khuri family, SMK Capital Management is a family-owned private equity real estate firm dedicated to helping investors build diversified, lower-risk, and recession-resistant income streams.
Through strategic partnerships and private syndications, we pool investor capital into professionally managed, passive real estate portfolios designed to deliver consistent cash flow, long-term growth, and attractive risk-adjusted returns—opportunities that are typically difficult for individual investors to source and thoroughly underwrite on their own.
Our investment approach is grounded in disciplined selectivity and extensive due diligence. We have focused on recession-resistant sectors for more than 15 years, reviewing 500–700 opportunities annually and investing in only 5–8, passing on more than 98% of what we evaluate.
Each opportunity we present has undergone rigorous underwriting and analysis to ensure strong performance potential, prudent risk management, and long-term value creation.
For investors seeking passive income and sustainable wealth building, our expertise, patient strategy, and deep industry relationships allow us to access and curate high-quality, often off-market real estate opportunities across varying market cycles.
Our mission is simple: To help investors create multiple streams of income and grow their wealth through diversified, recession-resistant real estate.
