A heavy underground contractor at heart, Ernest “Ernie” Pestana parlayed his success in underground construction – having completed many large public and private projects spanning numerous states – into commercial real estate investment, development, and management, implementing a carefully measured, systematic approach to owning and operating commercial real estate and prudently amassing a sizable portfolio of assets, recognizing early that in addition to location, a perpetual cognizance of timing (as it relates to transactions and the cyclical nature of real estate) and exhibition of staying power are paramount in successful commercial real estate investing.
Today, Pestana Properties continues its success and steadily builds upon its reputation, positioning its portfolio for outperformance in an ever-evolving market.
