Description The success of Pivotal Group hinges on real estate. The company primarily invests in and develops master-planned residential communities, luxury hotels and spas, and mixed-use and commercial properties in the western US, including Arizona, California, Colorado, Texas, and Utah. Prominent holdings include Los Angeles' Century Plaza Hotel and the Ritz-Carlton in Phoenix. Pivotal Group's private equity arm focuses on middle-market companies and annual sale of $100 million to $1 billion. It makes investments with internal capital rather than raising funds from institutional investors, as is the industry norm.
