LEADERSHIP
Alara Ventures was founded in 2012 by Alison Dimick Malkhassian. Her vision was to provide a platform from which to invest in multifamily real estate using a strategy honed over her successful twenty-five year career in multifamily investing. Through her experience across multiple capital platforms including investment banking, pension fund advisory, publicly traded REITs, and private equity; she knows first-hand the behavior and roles of capital markets in real estate investing. Likewise, her career-long specialty in multifamily investments gives her the knowledge from which to identify opportunities within all real estate cycles: nationally and locally.
Prior to forming Alara Ventures, she served as an officer and Senior Vice President of Camden Property Trust, where she led acquisitions, dispositions, research, and portfolio management for the company. As a voting member of the Investment Committee at Camden she approved in excess of $1 billion in multifamily developments in addition to acquisitions and dispositions.
