Shaker Auto Group

The wealth comes from the Shaker family's ownership and operation of Shaker Auto Group, a chain of car dealerships in New York and New England. The family built the business over several decades from a single dealership to multiple locations (public record).

The office deploys capital into real estate (commercial and automotive-related properties), private credit, and select direct equity investments. It focuses on U.S. opportunities, primarily in the Northeast corridor. No public data specifies target returns or sector preferences beyond real estate and private credit.

Public records are insufficient to determine whether the office participates in fund-of-funds, fund commitments, or only direct investments. Given its low profile and operating-company roots, it likely favors direct ownership of real estate and private credit positions.

No named principals or investment professionals are confirmed in public records. The family office does not publish a team list or organizational chart. Investment authority likely resides with the Shaker family, possibly with external advisors.

No separate investment vehicles—such as a nonprofit foundation or separate RIA—are confirmed in public records. The family office functions as a single-family office attached to the operating auto dealership business.

The office invests primarily in the United States, with a stated emphasis on the Northeast corridor where the operating business is based. Public records show real estate holdings in Watertown, New York and surrounding areas.

Sourcing channels are not publicly documented. Given the family's operating-business background, deal flow likely comes through industry relationships, local real estate networks, and direct outreach rather than a formal sourcing engine.
