ABOUT AVGI
THE
ADVANTAGES
OF AVGI
OUR CORE

DIVERSIFICATION
The firm currently has over $85 million of real estate holdings across 6 markets – Long Island, New York City, Houston, Little Rock, St. Louis, and Binghamton.
Low Volatility & Low Correlation

AVGI BY THE NUMBERS:
WE BUILD
GENERATIONAL WEALTH
We utilize our relationships in the capital markets to strategically refinance our properties and extract the majority of the investor equity faster than traditional real estate investments. This provides the opportunity to recycle the returned capital into our future pipeline deals
ENABLING TRUE
PASSIVE INCOME
Any investment in an opportunity provided by AVGI generates true passive income while building equity. Investing in AVGI means that you’re not just investing in a real estate deal, but you’re investing in a company, its resources, and its $85 million track record. While we do all the work to maximize the value of your investment, all you have to do is collect your distribution.
THE AVGI TEAM:
Allon Avgi is the Founder and CEO of AVGI. Mr. Avgi started AVGI at 21 years old when he acquired his first real estate investment.
Mr. Avgi has since developed a real estate holdings company that has transacted on over $200,000,000 of real estate over the past 6 years. In late 2021, Allon opened the firm’s investments to outside capital and started to build strategic partnerships, tripling the company’s AUM in 2 years. He has ambitiously set a target to acquire and manage a $1 billion real estate portfolio over the next 5 years.
In his free time Allon loves reading, creating content for his social profiles, finding new art for his collection and envisioning the future. Allon is a strong believer in giving back, both to his alma mater, Hofstra University & Chabad Lubavitch.
