I don’t usually send introductions like this — and I’m careful about who I introduce and what I put my name behind. That’s why I wanted to personally connect you with Marcus Ridgway.
Marcus is the co-founder and former COO of Invitation Homes, backed by Blackstone, and over his career has raised more than $10B in equity. Today, he leads F6 Partners, where he applies institutional operating discipline to residential real estate strategies that most individual investors rarely get access to.
What stood out to me wasn’t a pitch or a product — it was the depth of operating experience. Marcus and his partners have built and scaled national housing platforms, operated through multiple market cycles, and know where value actually exists when markets get complicated.
At F6, the focus is thematic residential investing across sectors where fundamentals matter and operational expertise creates real differentiation:
Single-family rentals
Student housing
Senior housing
Manufactured housing
Build-to-rent communities
Adaptive reuse
This is simply an introduction and an invitation to learn how a proven institutional operator thinks about residential real estate today — across these themes and through changing market environments.
If that sounds useful, Marcus has made time available for a limited number of introductory conversations. You can request time here.
No pressure at all — even a short conversation tends to be valuable. I’m making the introduction because I believe alignment matters, and I think you’ll find his perspective both practical and refreshing.
Why am I introducing you to Marcus?
I'm helping Marcus and F6 Partners grow their middle-market investor profile through connection.
It may only take one phone call to solve the most impossible problems.
Best,
Andrew LeBaron
