A Streamlined Approach to Growth
Our structure is intentionally lean, allowing us to focus on the fundamentals of every deal rather than the demands of a corporate hierarchy.
Inspired by Heritage
Selous Partners draws its name from the legendary explorer Frederick Courteney Selous and the principles of the elite units that carried his legacy—doing more with less through small teams, superior intelligence, and decisive action.
Founded by former Marine Corps Officer Ford Schwing, our firm brings that same adaptability, preparation, and trust-earned follow-through to commercial real estate acquisitions. Powered by private capital, we operate with a lean footprint that allows us to move swiftly and deliver certainty on every transaction.
Focused Expertise
01
Healthcare Assets
We target medical net-lease properties and purpose-built outpatient facilities occupied by established healthcare providers. By focusing on long-term NNN leases with essential community tenants, we deliver stable cash flows and resilient, long-term asset value.
02
Industrial Investments
We acquire small-format industrial and multi-tenant flex spaces situated in high-growth logistics corridors. By partnering with the core operational businesses that drive local economies, we create reliable, value-add returns through hands-on ownership.
03
Commercial Development
While our main focus is to acquire net-leased commercial properties — medical offices, industrial buildings, and flex space — in growing markets across the Carolinas. We buy right, manage actively, and hold for long-term cash flow. Where the right partnership and opportunity exist, we’ll build from the ground up.
04
Strategic Partnerships
We work with brokers, operators, and local experts who know their markets. Our investor base includes physicians, PE fund managers, and founders who bring capital, deal flow, and decades of operating experience in Healthcare and beyond to every acquisition. When the right deal comes together, they co-invest alongside us.
