Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Centaur Partners?
John Schreiber serves as President and founder, with Malcolm 'Zeke' Ashton as Managing Partner. Ashton also oversees the affiliated Centaur Value Fund. Investment decisions appear to be made collaboratively by these two senior principals, drawing on Schreiber's relationships dating back to his tenure as a co-founder of Blackstone Real Estate Advisors.
What is Centaur Partners' relationship with Blackstone?
John Schreiber co-founded Blackstone Real Estate Advisors alongside Stephen Schwarzman and Peter Peterson. Centaur Partners is an entirely separate entity from Blackstone, but the firms transact periodically — Blackstone affiliates appear as business partners on select Centaur deals, reflecting a continued professional relationship.
How does Centaur Partners source its real estate deals?
Centaur sources deals primarily through repeat operating partnerships. The firm has completed multiple transactions with JDL Development for Chicago multifamily projects and with Talos Capital for industrial portfolio assembly. This co-investment model, paired with Schreiber's institutional network, provides off-market and lightly-marketed deal flow across the Midwest.
