The Case for StateHouse

Not everything worth building starts from a clean slate. Some things begin after consequence — after collapse.
Years ago, I made a mistake that cost me my reputation, my momentum, and the certainty I had about who I was becoming. That experience forced me to ask deeper questions: not just about myself, but about the systems I trusted. Education. Work. Identity. Status. And what I found was this:
Most of what we call success is architecture without structure.
So I went back to basics. Earned a degree in real estate from USC. Then another from Columbia. Managed a $1.2B housing portfolio. Then co-founded Incorporated Partners, not to repeat someone else’s playbook, but to write a new one — one rooted in systems, substance, and conviction.
Our first project is StateHouse.
What is StateHouse?
StateHouse is a response — to market failure, institutional stagnation, and generational uncertainty. It’s not a co-living gimmick or a hospitality knockoff. It’s a purpose-built environment for high-performing students and early-career professionals who need more than a luxury lease. They need launch support. They need structure.
At Incorporated Partners, we believe that real estate can deliver ROI in more than one dimension. Financial, yes. But also human. Social. Directional. That's what StateHouse is engineered to do — create compounding returns by anchoring talent in curated ecosystems that accelerate outcomes.
Why now?
Because the ladder is gone.
AI has erased entry-level career rungs.
Universities are scrambling to stay relevant.
And families — especially UHNW families — are tired of investing six figures into education with no structured follow-through.
They’re not looking for marble countertops.
They’re looking for results.
This is what we call the “Panic Premium” — the rising willingness to pay for certainty in a collapsing world. That’s the economic logic behind StateHouse. Not just high design, but high design embedded with life infrastructure.
Why us?
Because I’ve lived both sides of this problem.
I’ve seen what happens when structure fails. And I’ve lived what happens when structure saves. That’s not marketing — that’s experience. And it’s why our vision is resonating.
We’ve already launched a pilot.
We’ve formed strategic partnerships (ResortPass, Office Hours).
We’re actively assembling the ecosystem.
And soon, we’ll raise capital to build the flagship.
StateHouse will be a new category in real estate — but more than that, it will be a new category in support.
A place where ambitious people don’t just land.
They lift off.
This is the future we’re building — not in theory, but through the rigor of development, capital structuring, and human-centered design. It starts with StateHouse. It scales through Incorporated Partners.
And it’s being built to last.",
