ABOUT THE COMPANY

Dalcor was originally formed in August 1982 by M. Dale Dodson to help facilitate real estate (multi-family) transactions. The primary focus was structuring acquisitions, financing, and management of multi-family investments and operations for executives of various clients such as American Airlines, Texas Instruments, Arthur Young & Co., etc. Dalcor also successfully performed property management for various institutions (GE, Citibank, etc.), managing multi-family foreclosures and/or struggling properties for these companies and turning around the operations enabling the properties to sell for large profits.
