WHO WE ARE ?
Goldenwrist Capital is a U.S.-based real estate firm that has been operating for over 10 years, strategically focusing on multifamily workforce housing in Houston, Texas. Our operations target properties in distressed neighborhoods, which, prior to our acquisition, are extremely dilapidated and mismanaged, with severely low occupancy and high delinquency rates. We specialize in adding deep value through a unique repositioning approach that combines physical building renovation with significant social support and services, all geared towards benefiting working-class families.
WHAT WE DO
Goldenwrist Capital revitalizes mismanaged, socio-economically distressed communities, transforming them into safe and comfortable long-term homes for working-class families, while keeping housing prices affordable and key housing services accessible.
FOUNDER : Jack Burhan ALTINBILEK
Jack Burhan Altinbilek, the founder of Goldenwrist Capital, hails from Erzincan, Turkey. He earned his Bachelor of Education Degree in Turkish Language from Ankara Gazi University in 2008 and pursued graduate studies at the University of Missouri Kansas City. Later, he transferred to the University of Texas PB, obtaining an M.A. degree in Professional Education in 2013. He began a Ph.D. degree in Political Science in 2014 but did not finish. Altinbilek received Startalk scholarships established by the NSA in 2012 and 2013. In 2012, he obtained a certificate and served as a lecturer at Indiana University Bloomington. In 2013, he worked as a supervisor and received a certificate from Stanford University.
Altinbilek entered the real estate industry in 2009, right after the 2008 mortgage crisis, leveraging opportunities through bankrupt and foreclosure properties. Despite challenging times, he transitioned into a full-time real estate investor in late 2014, achieving an average annual growth minimum of 25%.
Altinbilek’s real estate journey began in 2009 during an economic downturn when he purchased his first residential property from a bankrupt landlord while studying at the university. Approaching real estate with an academic perspective as a lecturer, he has grown a multi-thousand-unit real estate company. Specializing in revitalizing distressed communities, Altinbilek employs a unique approach by addressing mismanaged properties, eradicating criminal elements, restoring social services, providing jobs to the local community, and leasing to hardworking families. This case-study-based strategy has transformed numerous neighborhoods, and Altinbilek remains committed to revitalizing underserved communities, believing in his ability to bring peace, serenity, and value to these areas—an endeavor he views as boundless, with a well-established and competition-free niche. Having successfully repeated this process countless times, he is prepared to continue making a positive impact indefinitely.
