Typical close
The actual choice
There are two doors out of a distressed building, and they are not the same door with different paint. One of them asks you to fix the building first.
List it on the open market
Sell it to Chaja Properties
Neither column is a trick. If the building is in good shape and you can wait ninety days, the open market will very likely pay you more. We are the right call when the condition, the tenancies or the clock take that option off the table.
What puts a building here
None of them mean you did anything wrong. They mean the building has a problem that keeps it from selling easily on the open market. That is the whole definition of distressed, and it is the only kind of building we buy.
01
It was a roof, then the boiler, then a panel that will not pass inspection. Every one of them was going to be the last one. A lender will not finance around any of it, so the buyers who could pay you properly cannot get funded.
02
Half-let, or let to people who are not paying. The building still takes taxes, insurance and a phone call at ten at night, and it is now taking them out of your own pocket rather than out of the rent.
03
Unpaid rent, an eviction backlog, a tenant you inherited and cannot move. You do not have to resolve any of it first. We buy the building as it stands, tenancies included.
04
You did not choose this building. It came with an estate, and now you are running contractors in a city you do not live in, for tenants you have never met. You do not need to travel here to sell it.
What we buy
If it has more than one front door and it has become a problem, it is worth a conversation. We look at buildings other buyers walk away from.
01
Duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes and small apartment buildings that have stopped being an asset and started being a second job.
Open
02
Good bones, wrong condition. Buildings where the rent roll is well under what the block can carry, and closing the gap needs capital you would rather not put in.
Open03
Units that are draining cash instead of producing it. We do not need the building filled before we buy it, and we do not need you to fill it.
Open
04
Roofs, HVAC, plumbing and electrical that a traditional lender will not finance around. That is our underwriting, not our objection.
Open05
Bring us a building that will not survive the open market. We close quickly and we do not retrade you three days before closing.
OpenSt. Louis multifamily, 2026
Investors want St. Louis multifamily inventory and are paying for it, even when a building needs work. New supply has slowed sharply at the same time, which makes an existing building, including one that needs renovation, worth more to a buyer who intends to hold it.

Before you call
No obligation
You will speak to Jackson Mosley, not a call centre. An offer costs nothing, commits you to nothing, and takes one conversation about the building.
