Discerning Capital.
Exceptional Assets.
The Right People Behind Both.

Acquired a multi-unit residential property in Rock Hill's emerging short-term rental corridor and repositioned each unit as a distinct, design-forward STR. A cash-out refinance recycled substantial capital back to ownership while the asset continues generating strong annual revenue — demonstrating the compounding power of hospitality-optimized real estate.

Acquired a two-unit property at an attractive below-market basis and converted both into high-performing STRs with distinct identities — a renovated Cape Cod cottage and a spacious 3-bedroom flagship. Held since 2020, the asset has delivered an exceptional equity multiple through appreciation, revenue optimization, and disciplined cost management.

Acquired in 2016 — our earliest short-term rental and the property that shaped the Pacilio Capital playbook. This craftsman home in the Charlotte metro was converted into a high-performing STR, generating consistent revenue before being sold in 2019 at a significant premium. The successful exit and capital recycled from this asset directly funded the next acquisitions in the portfolio.

Our first short-term rental — a craftsman bungalow in Fort Mill's growing Charlotte bedroom community — acquired in 2019 and operated through 2022. The property validated our core thesis: hands-on repositioning, design-forward presentation, and active revenue management compound significantly over a disciplined hold. Sold at a meaningful premium, this exit funded the next phase of the portfolio.

A classic brick bungalow on a quiet Fort Mill street, acquired in 2019 and operated as a high-performing STR through 2023. Over four years, the property delivered consistent cash flow while appreciating 78% in value — a steady, compounding return profile that defines the lower-risk end of our STR thesis. Exited on favorable terms with full capital recovery and meaningful profit.

A charming craftsman bungalow in the Charlotte metro, acquired in 2020 and repositioned as a design-forward short-term rental. Cedar House delivered strong consistent revenue over a three-year hold while appreciating 57% in value — demonstrating the repeatable compounding returns available when operational expertise meets the right asset in a high-demand market. Exited in 2023 with full capital recovery and meaningful upside.

The Chancellor was a historic Victorian on Louisville's Bourbon Trail — a property we believed had top-10% STR potential in an underserved market. We acquired it in 2022 and immediately began the permitting process. What followed was a lesson in regulatory risk: a single neighbor's opposition swayed the permit board by one vote, and the STR license was denied.

With no permit and no path to STR operation, we held the property for the full year — generating only one month of long-term rental income — before exiting at a significant loss. The property was right. The market was right. The regulatory environment was the single point of failure. And it only takes one.

This deal permanently changed how we underwrite new markets. STR permitting risk is now a hard gate in our acquisition criteria — we verify municipal rules, local political climate, and neighbor opposition dynamics before any offer goes in.
