Perch Wealth is an investment firm specializing in real estate and alternative investments. With more than two hundred years of combined experience and recognized as the most experienced team in the alternative investment industry, the Perch Wealth team is qualified to guide you in a variety of investment opportunities within this niche space.

Managing partners Ben Carmona and Ehud Gersten recognized a gap in the alternative investment industry. Leveraging their experience and business acumen, they established an alternative investment firm that offers clients the quality of service and informed guidance that investors deserve.

Perch Wealth is dedicated to guiding clients in their investments. The Perch Wealth team’s comprehensive understanding of real estate and alternative investments, structures, and strategies results from their combined experience in acquisitions, finance, due diligence, underwriting, and product structuring. They provide clients access to the very best alternative investment strategies the market has to offer. These investment opportunities include, but are not limited to, Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs), private real estate investment Trusts (REITs), private equity and debt funds, interval funds, and other private placement syndications.

Perch Wealth was created with the client in mind. Every member of the Perch team was hand-selected to ensure Perch clients were informed only by experienced and seasoned professionals. Senior staff members include those with their JDs, MBAs, and CPAs, and most hold their Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) series 7 and 66 securities licenses.

Testimonials

What Are People Saying?

"A few months ago, I was a complete novice to the world of accredited investing. While searching the internet and getting bombarded with marketing materials from pushy advising firms, I thankfully came across Perch Wealth and met Doug Zator. As easy-going as he is knowledgeable of the industry, Doug taught me all about Delaware Statutory Trusts and the 1031 exchange, the different sponsors and their defining characteristics, the various asset classes and which make the most sense for the current economy and my circumstances, and even how to navigate a Private Placement Memorandum. He was happy to meet as many times as I needed to learn the process and make decisions I was comfortable with, and he and the Perch Wealth team made the actual exchange incredibly simple for me. I am now a confident investor in multiple DSTs that are generating trouble-free income. The road getting here was enriching, easy and fun - thanks to Doug and the Perch Wealth team. I look forward to working with them again!"
