Elevation Financial Group, a provider of multifamily and senior affordable housing, recently closed its seventh fundraise with $43.4 million raised. Elevation Real Property Fund VII, LLC (The Apollo Fund) launched at a summit event in May 2019 with significant investor interest and saw unprecedented support from past and current Elevation investors, as well as new investors from across the country.

As the largest fundraise in Elevation history, The Apollo Fund surpassed goals and raised over $20 million more than Fund VI, Elevation’s previous fund. Individual investment averages also exceeded Fund VI averages by $75,000.

As with Elevation’s prior funds, a large number of current or past investors reinvested in The Apollo Fund. Out of 267 investors who have ever invested in an Elevation fund over its 14-year history, 64 percent chose to participate in the newest fund.  In addition, 80 percent of a recent $13.5 million distribution to Fund VI investors was reinvested back into the Apollo Fund.

“Elevation’s Fund VII, The Apollo Fund is off to a fast start thanks to the growing support of a dedicated group of investors from all parts of the country,” said Chris King, CEO of Elevation. “I am excited about what we will accomplish in The Apollo Fund and what we have already accomplished with some terrific assets acquired in the Southeast and Midwest. We are dedicated to delivering disciplined leadership over all facets of the investment process and are deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve so many wonderful investor families.”

The Apollo Fund has already seen six impressive property acquisitions totaling over 1,100 units, including:

  • A 496-unit senior community in Indianapolis, Indiana, representing Elevation's largest acquisition to date
  • Four multifamily properties in Louisiana totaling 456 units
  • A 160-unit 55+ independent senior community in Springfield, Illinois.
