About Regent Properties

Headquartered in Los Angeles, California, Regent Properties was established in 1989 by Managing Partners Jeff Dinkin and Doug Brown, along with Allen Kohl, one of the founders of the Kohl's Department Store chain. Since then, Regent has acquired, developed and financed over $1 billion in real estate transactions nationally, encompassing more than 2 million square feet of retail, commercial, residential and mixed-use projects and 8,000 acres of master planned communities.

Regent has been successful at identifying and implementing a broad spectrum of entrepreneurial real estate transactions.  With each investment and development, the firm is committed to fostering honest and straight forward partnerships; maintaining long-term tenant, brokerage, seller and governmental relationships; introducing innovative development strategies; and demonstrating operational excellence in design, leasing, financing, construction and management.

In 2004, Regent Properties entered into a joint venture with Stark Investments as its primary real estate and development partner. Stark is a global alternative investment firm that manages capital through a family of private investment funds. Stark's financing capital markets and hedging expertise dovetails uniquely with Regent's real estate development, investment and analytical experience.  In 2007, Highfields Capital Management LP, a value-oriented investment firm, joined Regent and Stark in a joint venture to invest in Regent's real estate opportunities. Stark and Highfields each manage several billion dollars of investment capital.

Since 2008, Regent Properties has invested over $150 million in a variety of real estate assets, including distressed developments, bank notes, residential, retail and industrial projects.
