🚀 From a Mall to a Hub of Opportunity 🌟 link below

We’re excited to share the transformation of Richland Mall, now reimagined as Ontario Center—a destination that embodies: restaurants entertainment, sports, e-commerce and many other entrepreneurial opportunities.

Located in Ontario OH, the center is adjacent to AVITA Health System. In the face of the declining big-box retail, we’re trying to chart a bold new path. Our vision? Reinventing malls as vibrant e-commerce hubs while integrating diverse spaces that inspire and energize communities. From pickleball courts and trampoline parks to gyms, saunas, salon suites, and more, Ontario Center will be a hub where people come to work, play, and thrive.

This journey isn’t without its challenges. The cost of rehabbing retail spaces for new uses is steep, but we’re committed to overcoming every hurdle. Why? Because we believe this transformation represents more than just a shift in real estate—it’s a renewal of community spaces, a revitalization of local economies, and a blueprint for the future of mixed-use developments.

Ontario Center is more than a project. It’s a promise to reimagine what’s possible in commercial real estate, one innovation at a time.

Let’s build the future—together. 💡

“Meeting Timur, someone who shares my values, beliefs, and aspirations, feels like looking into a mirror. It’s incredible how quickly a strong relationship can form when there’s so much in common, especially with our shared understanding of the immigrant journey. Coming from Uzbekistan, we both know the challenges and triumphs that come with building a life far from home. ”

“Your network is truly your net worth. 🌟 The people you choose to bring into your life can be your greatest source of strength, inspiration, and opportunity. Building meaningful relationships isn’t just a strategy—it’s a way of life that shapes your journey to success and happiness.

Surround yourself with those who lift you up, challenge you to grow, and share your values and vision. Deliberately investing time and energy into connecting with others opens doors that you may not even know exist and creates bonds that last a lifetime.

Remember, success is rarely achieved alone. Your community, mentors, friends, and even those you help will all play pivotal roles in your story. Be intentional, be genuine, and watch your life transform as you build a network that adds value—not just to your career, but to your entire life. 🤝✨

Revitalizing Properties with Purpose

When we acquire a new property, our mission is simple: always to add value. We start with essential renovations, from upgrading roofs and asphalt to painting walls and transforming large spaces into functional units. But it’s not just about physical improvements—we engage with our tenants to learn what they need and reach out to the community to understand what they want to see.

As the work progresses, we welcome new tenants and organize events like markets, fairs, small business gatherings, rare car expos, holiday celebrations, and more. Our goal is to breathe new life into properties that were once community hubs—introducing fresh businesses, entertainment, restaurants, and more.

“Time is our most valuable commodity, yet it’s the one we squander most. Unlike money or material things, once time is spent, it can never be recovered. Every moment wasted is an opportunity lost forever.”

“The power of masterminds lies in the collective energy, wisdom, and support of like-minded individuals. When you surround yourself with driven people, you don’t just add to your growth—you multiply it. Together, you unlock new perspectives, overcome challenges faster, and accelerate success. And of course we all were brain washed into worshiping Vladimir Lenin 😵‍💫

We take a unique approach to industrial properties by acquiring large spaces and transforming them into versatile light industrial units. By breaking down these big areas, we create flexible spaces that meet the changing needs of today’s businesses.

Our focus isn’t just on converting space; it’s about making the most of every property. We consider what the market wants, what tenants need, and how to create long-term value. This ensures our spaces are not only practical but also ready for the future. Whether it’s improving access, adding modern facilities, or customizing spaces for specific industries, our goal is to provide the perfect environment for businesses to grow.

Through thoughtful upgrades, we unlock the full potential of these industrial properties, turning them into high-performing spaces that support business success.
