Pacific West Land, LLC (PWL) is a private equity real estate investment and development firm celebrating its 35th anniversary. For over 12 years PWL has been working with NAPFA members to make low-leverage direct real estate investment opportunities available to their high net worth clients.
With an experienced eye and a disciplined, mathematical approach, Pacific West Land researches, analyzes, and invests in real estate across the United States. Comparing real estate values across different regions, PWL identifies inefficiencies as real estate markets react to economic cycles and respond to variations in local conditions. This translates to an ability to change with the times, adapting as new opportunities are identified.
Pacific West Land works only with accredited and institutional investors. We believe in a personal approach to each investor’s needs, and reach out through investor meetings, events, substantial reporting, and audits to make sure every investor is well-informed and comfortable. We pride ourselves on being accessible to our investors.
We designed our business model with several basic premises at hand. Clients, their families and their businesses need certain protections for their lives and their livelihoods. On one hand, clients trust their advisors to bring important conversations to their planning table. On the other, advisors are entrusted with guarding the door - never letting bias or pressure inside. With these barriers to entry, clients' needs aren't always met and their families & businesses remain exposed.
We exist to provide comprehensive insurance planning services to select professionals in the fee-only space who regularly advise affluent clients. We serve as your true insurance partner - an unbiased consultant who provides expertise in the areas of life insurance, disability and long-term care planning. We also understand the confidentiality agreement between you and your client, and the fact that your client may be well-known in your community. That's why every relationship and every engagement is treated with white glove service. It's like going to the concierge at the Four Seasons - the conversation is all about the client with the concierge serving as a conduit to the client's ideal experience.
It is our goal to make the process of analyzing and obtaining insurance personal and pleasurable for all involved. Excellence, trust and collaboration are the foundation of the work of the Palladium Group.
Our model is about Honoring the Impact® of your professional relationships, and every layer of the insurance cycle by providing cutting edge research and design along with first-class implementation and administration for the insurance needs of an elite advisor's clients
