Chase Merritt is an integrated real estate investment firm with over 72 years of combined expertise across hospitality, resort, mixed-use, and commercial real estate in the United States.
With $2.5 billion in transactions and a track record spanning three market cycles, we deploy capital with conviction and the firsthand expertise to back it up. We are patient, selective, and deeply committed to the partnerships we pursue.
We invest in exceptional places — markets where demand is structural, supply is constrained, and the opportunity to create lasting value is real. Our approach combines institutional discipline with deep operational experience. We know these markets because we have worked in them, built in them, and managed assets through multiple cycles.
We believe every investment is an opportunity to build not just for today, but to leave a lasting positive impact on the places we operate. We craft enduring assets that strengthen communities, support local economies, and balance progress with preservation.
Chase Merritt represents the family legacy of its founder, Chad Horning — a bridge between generations, built on integrity and optimism. Every decision this firm makes carries both.
We are relationship-driven. If you are an investor, developer, or partner who shares our standards, we'd welcome the conversation.
