WHO WE ARE

About Us

Sticks Holdings, LLC is a privately held commercial real estate development and investment company located in South Los Angeles for over 30 years. Prior to forming Sticks Holdings LLC Curtis Fralin was a Senior Vice President with CB Richard Ellis specializing in urban ground up retail and office development with a specialty in the procurement of national credit retailers. Sticks is well respected in the community as one of the few minority owned real estate companies and for its numerous quality developments over the last 30 years.

STICKS MISSION STATEMENT IS AS FOLLOWS:

To operate as a commercial real estate development and investment company specializing in the underserved, underrepresented, impoverished, and primarily minority geographical areas referred to as “urban” or “inner-city” regions of the United States.

To acquire and develop quality properties in urban markets based on realistic values for its own investment affiliates and joint venture partners. Once properties are acquired or developed, the Company will provide all of the adjunct services, skills and systems necessary to maintain each property to the highest standards of quality, to achieve the greatest operating efficiencies and, finally, to realize the highest profit performance.

SYNDICATIONS

Sticks Holdings, LLC (“Sticks”) seeks to raise equity capital for the acquisition and development of commercial land and buildings in core urban markets of Southern California and similar low income, dense infill markets across the United States.   While these communities historically have been outside the focus of main stream developers  we have concentrated and specialized in these markets as they have exhibited strong economic growth, incredible density, fast growing  family oriented communities, job creation and positive trends in net absorption and cap rates of retail and office assets.
