Founded in 1992 by Peter Bren and Charles J. Schreiber, Jr., KBS Realty Advisors is one of the leading real estate investment advisors in the nation. KBS is a real estate operating company, not a financial institution. KBS understands the complexities of managing and operating real estate and has successfully executed its strategies through 18 separate accounts and six commingled funds that the company has formed since its inception.

Acting on behalf of investors, KBS has often been awarded full discretionary use of capital due to the extensive "hands-on" experience KBS has in the real estate industry, encompassing almost every major metropolitan area in the nation. KBS senior executives average 30 years each of direct real estate experience, honed by the discipline of four real estate cycles.

KBS recognizes that the key to its success are people. Not only does KBS employ some of the most talented professionals in the industry, KBS also believes that conducting good business and forming good relationships are the reason why the company has frequently been selected as a preferred buyer, and why KBS is often awarded repeat investment allocations. Relationships are vital to success.
