Partner with Hanson Capital to secure lasting wealth. Our strategic, metrics-driven approach to multi-tenant industrial investments positions you to preserve and grow your legacy.
Hanson Capital is a privately held real estate investment firm focused on multi-tenant industrial properties and private credit, offering equity and debt investment opportunities to individuals, institutions, and financial advisors.
Growth or Income
Equity investments place your capital in the ownership of multi-tenant industrial buildings. They suit investors looking for growth and a share of the upside a property produces.
Debt investments place your capital in private real estate loans secured by property. They suit investors who want income and a defined position ahead of equity.
Hanson handles leasing, operations, and tenant relationships for the industrial properties it owns, which is how the business plan for each asset actually gets carried out.
The specifics behind how the firm invests, who it works with, and where it operates.
Hanson Capital works with individual investors, institutions, and financial advisors who are evaluating industrial real estate and private credit. Opportunities are offered privately, and availability depends on the specific offering and on investor eligibility requirements. Speak with the Hanson Capital investor relations team.
One asset from the portfolio, start to current status.
A 273,183 square foot multi-tenant industrial building on an 8.51-acre heavy industrial parcel at 2901 N 29th Drive in Phoenix, Arizona.
Acquire a functional, centrally located industrial building at a low cost basis. Hanson Capital purchased the property for $16.0 million, which works out to just under $59 per square foot.
The building is divided into suites and houses 18 tenants. Hanson Capital manages it in-house and works the rent roll suite by suite as leases come up, keeping the space configured for the small-bay industrial users active in the Phoenix market.
2901 N 29th Drive is an active holding in the Hanson Capital portfolio. See the full Hanson Capital portfolio of industrial assets.
At Hanson, investors and their financial advisors have direct access to me and the team of professionals whose insights and discipline make Hanson's investment outcomes possible. Transparency is essential to earning trust. That's why it's a key part of our operating model.
I value Hanson’s transparency and straightforward approach. They give me accurate, no-nonsense information whether it’s good or bad news. Their rigorous underwriting and due diligence create a foundation of trust that’s critical in real estate investing. When they don’t have an answer, they simply say so and get back to me promptly.

Chris excels at communication with consistent, quality updates about our investments. Their investor portal provides one of the better client experiences in the industry. What makes Hanson special is how they build genuine relationships—they’re not just transactional. That personal connection and reliability are why I’ve confidently referred family members to them.
Multi-Family Office
Chris brilliantly positioned his company by moving away from saturated multifamily into less competitive asset classes. What I appreciate most is the close connection to my investments—no layers of management between me and my money. Chris is exceptionally intelligent and articulate without talking over people’s heads. His direct approach creates transparency that’s hard to find in investment management.

Hanson stands out for their consistent, timely communication—they’re more responsive than other firms I work with. They keep investors informed about what we need to know and are always available when I have questions. I’m impressed by how they strategically outsource what isn’t their core strength while maintaining quality control on the investments themselves. Their responsiveness makes me feel valued as an investor.
Hanson Equity Investor
What sets Hanson apart is their exceptional deal quality and volume—they see and vet more opportunities than anyone else we know, giving them unique market insights. Chris is refreshingly authentic rather than putting on a show; he doesn’t need to look the part because he genuinely is ‘one of the smartest people in the space.’ They consistently under-promise and over-deliver, which builds tremendous trust over time.
Tower Capital Team
Chris’s drive to continuously improve and his commitment to investors is remarkable. He operates with the philosophy that he’s never lost an investor’s dollar and doesn’t plan to start. His intelligence combined with transparency creates a trustworthy investment environment. The team is consistently professional, providing all needed information without pushback, which makes the banking relationship seamless.

Hanson Capital runs equity, debt, and asset management in-house, so the same team that underwrites a deal also operates the building afterward. The firm has been investing since 2008, concentrates on multi-tenant industrial and flex property in Arizona and Texas, and commits its own capital alongside investors in the deals it sponsors. Acquisitions are judged on cost basis rather than story. 2901 N 29th Drive in Phoenix, for example, is a 273,183 square foot multi-tenant industrial building bought for $16.0 million, just under $59 per square foot.
We look for pricing inefficiencies in industrial real estate, usually buildings that are functional and well located but priced below comparable sales or replacement cost. Underwriting is deliberately conservative, with protecting investor principal treated as the first job and upside treated as something to be earned through leasing and operations rather than assumed in a model. Because Hanson manages its own assets, the business plan is carried out by the same people who wrote it.
Investors and their financial advisors have direct access to Chris Hanson and the investment team rather than going through a sales desk. Reporting, distributions, and investment documents are available through the Hanson investor portal, and the team answers questions on any asset in the portfolio directly.
Most opportunities come through a broker network the firm has maintained for years across its Arizona and Texas markets, which is how it sees deals that never reach the open market. Each one is underwritten on its own cash flow, with particular attention to cost basis per square foot, tenant mix and lease rollover, building functionality such as clear height, power, and loading, and the depth of tenant demand in that specific submarket. Opportunities that do not clear those basis and underwriting tests are passed on.
Hanson Capital works with individual accredited investors, institutions, and financial advisors investing on behalf of their clients. Opportunities are offered privately rather than publicly marketed, and eligibility depends on the requirements of the specific offering.
Investors can participate on the equity side, taking an ownership position in industrial assets and sharing in the income and appreciation they produce, or on the debt side, through private real estate loans secured by property that sit ahead of equity in the capital stack. Hanson also offers passive industrial ownership for investors completing a 1031 exchange.
The portfolio is concentrated in industrial corridors in Arizona and Texas, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Houston, Stafford, and Pharr. Hanson Capital keeps its corporate office in Scottsdale, Arizona and a branch office in Los Angeles, California.
Hanson focuses on multi-tenant industrial and flex buildings, including small-bay business parks, distribution space, and light manufacturing. Assets typically have practical industrial features such as 20 to 24 foot clear height, heavy power, dock or grade loading, and a workable mix of office and warehouse space. Buildings range from roughly 27,000 square feet to more than 340,000 square feet.
