DeGreen Private Wealth

DeGreen Private Wealth operates as the family office for Mike DeGreen, whose background in manufactured-housing finance informs the office's concentrated investment approach. Founded in Paradise Valley, Arizona, the firm reflects a common path for single-family offices born from a founder's specific operational expertise. It deploys capital primarily into real estate and private credit transactions, avoiding broad diversification in favor of a direct, principal-driven model. The office's strategy leans heavily on private credit and direct real estate, with an emphasis on income-generating assets. DeGreen's lending roots mean the portfolio often includes bridge loans, preferred equity, and structured credit — instruments that demand deep documentation fluency. The geographic footprint is anchored in the US Southwest, with known activity in Arizona and neighboring markets. Without a fund structure, each commitment is balance-sheet capital, allowing for bespoke terms that institutional funds often cannot offer. Team size and aggregate deployment figures have not been publicly disclosed, consistent with the office's low-profile posture. No adjacent philanthropic vehicles or club memberships have been reported. The office's public footprint is minimal — no LinkedIn presence, no strategy white papers — which is characteristic of a single-family office that relies on network-driven sourcing rather than inbound marketing. Structurally, DeGreen Private Wealth sits at the intersection of a family office and an independent credit shop. Its founder's prior lending operation provides a deal pipeline that most family offices lack, while the family-office structure removes the pressure for fee income or external LP mandates. That dual advantage — direct origination capacity married to patient, discretionary capital — allows the office to hold loans and properties through cycles that would force a regulated lender to mark to market.
