JVM Realty
JVM Realty Corporation is a vertically integrated real estate investment and property management company headquartered in Oak Brook, Illinois, focused exclusively on multifamily residential real estate in the Midwest. Founded in 1975 and celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2025, JVM brings five decades of experience investing in, managing, and operating apartment communities across key Midwest markets including Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. The company manages approximately $1.6 billion in assets under management through a portfolio of approximately 5,670 residential units, supported by a team of approximately 180 professionals.
JVM's business model is grounded in complete vertical integration across the multifamily investment lifecycle, combining investment management — including capital raising, acquisitions, and asset management — with in-house property management that actively oversees every detail of the company's properties in the field. This hands-on model allows JVM to maintain consistent operating standards, identify value creation opportunities at the property level, and deliver more predictable outcomes for investors than managers who rely on third-party operators. JVM's leadership team, including CEO Jay Madary and COO Steve Boyack, emphasizes relationship-driven value creation built on trust, honesty, and respect for residents, business partners, and team members — a culture described internally as a commitment to doing right by investors, employees, and residents in every decision.
JVM Realty is headquartered at 903 Commerce Drive, Suite 250, Oak Brook, Illinois, and offers investors access to Midwest multifamily real estate through its JVM Securities platform. The company's exclusive geographic and product focus on Midwest multifamily — what management describes as only multifamily, only Midwest — enables JVM to develop deeper market knowledge, more durable operator relationships, and more accurate pricing of investment risk than generalist managers competing across multiple asset types and geographies. JVM's consistent 50-year operating track record through multiple economic cycles reflects the durability of its community-focused, relationship-driven approach to multifamily real estate investment and management.
