Arel CapitalArel Capital Overview
Arel Capital is a real estate-focused investment company established in January 2013 by Richard Leibovitch and Gabriel Bousbib. The founders bring over five decades of combined experience in real estate, asset-based lending, and debt and equity capital markets, having previously held senior leadership roles in major asset management firms. Mr. Leibovitch served as a founding partner and former Chief Investment Officer of Gottex Fund Management, a publicly traded asset management firm overseeing $8 billion in assets, while Mr. Bousbib held the position of Chief Operating Officer at the same firm. Their long-standing professional partnership reflects a history of collaboration and success. Together, they have built Arel Capital with a commitment to applying institutional-quality due diligence and disciplined investment processes to real estate opportunities often overlooked by large institutional investors. Leveraging their extensive network of property managers, lenders, and intermediaries, they identify attractive investment opportunities early—often before they reach the broader market. The firm collaborates closely with local property managers and brokers who provide in-depth neighborhood insights and hands-on oversight of individual properties. Importantly, Arel Capital’s principals co-invest in every transaction, ensuring alignment of interests and accountability in each deal they pursue.
