The data is in! See what family owned businesses are saying about today’s challenges and opportunities.

Family businesses face a unique challenge: balancing near-term needs with long-term legacy. At Buchanan Street Partners, we understand that real estate can be more than just an asset—it can be a strategic lever for multi-generational success.

Whether you’re evaluating the value of your operating company’s real estate, exploring tax-efficient investment opportunities, or looking to diversify a family portfolio, we bring institutional experience with a family-office mindset. Our team specializes in helping family enterprises:

  1. Understand how real estate can compound wealth tax-efficiently for multiple generations
  2. Reinvest business proceeds or family income into passive tax-efficient real estate structures
  3. Evaluate direct real estate investments and diversified strategies for income and appreciation
  4. Build and manage a diversified portfolio over a long-term investment horizon

Real estate decisions should support your family’s long-term vision—not complicate it. We help you make informed, strategic choices that align with both business needs and personal values.

The need for fact-based reporting of issues important to family owned businesses and protecting a lifetime of savings has never been greater. Now more than ever, successful families and family owned businesses are under fire. That's why Family Enterprise USA is passionately working to increase the awareness of issues important to family owned businesses built on hard work, while continuing to strengthen our presence on Capitol Hill. The issues we fight for or against with Congress in Washington DC include high income tax rates, possible elimination of valuation discounts, increase in capital gains tax, enactment of a wealth tax, and the continued burden of the gift tax, estate tax and generation skipping tax.


Family Enterprise USA promotes generationally owned family business creation, growth, viability, and sustainability by advocating for family businesses and their lifetime of savings with Congress in Washington DC.  Since 2007, Family Enterprise USA has represented and celebrated all sizes, professions and industries of family-owned enterprises and multi-generational employers. It is a bi-partisan 501.c3 organization. Family foundations can donate.
