About Escalera Capital: Escalera Capital is the newly restructured and rebranded entity that evolved from MLSA Ventures. Our organization now includes Escalera Capital, Presidian, Source Strategies, and Mulberry Realty Partners. We manage a diverse portfolio that spans hospitality, industrial, and retail assets. Presidian oversees the management of more than 10 hotels, including trophy assets, primarily in San Antonio. Many of these hotels, such as the Doubletree San Antonio Airport, require Property Improvement Plans (PIPs) to meet brand standards. Mulberry Realty Partners manages industrial and retail assets, including shallow bay parks and movie theaters.


We are currently engaged in several exciting projects, including ground-up developments, hotel renovations, and adaptive reuse initiatives. Our team is focused on maximizing value across our portfolio, with an emphasis on hospitality asset management. Join Escalera Capital as we continue to shape the commercial real estate landscape with strategic growth and innovative asset management.

  • Operational & Capital Strategy: Develop and implement business plans for individual properties, collaborating with property managers and operations teams to meet and exceed financial targets.
  • Market Analysis & Risk Management: Monitor market trends, assess risks, and adjust strategies to maintain portfolio competitiveness and mitigate potential issues.
  • Lease & Financing Strategy: Oversee lease negotiations, capital expenditures, and refinancing efforts in alignment with business objectives.

 Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Real Estate, or a related field.
  • Minimum of 10 years of experience in hospitality asset management, with strong experience managing hotel assets for brands like Marriott, Hilton, IHG, and Hyatt.
