What are the responsibilities and job description for the REAL ESTATE PRIVATE EQUITY ANALYST position at Elkhorn Capital Partners, LLC?

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Elkhorn Capital Partners is a real estate private equity firm focused on the acquisition, management, and strategic repositioning of multifamily properties in the South and Midwest, with current investments primarily in Oklahoma City and Tulsa. Our portfolio targets workforce housing assets, often in distressed or special-situation acquisitions where new strategic capital and active management can unlock value.

Elkhorn’s founding partner is a former hedge fund manager who redirected his focus years ago to hard assets, applying a macroeconomic view to inform investment decisions. As a principal-side operator, Elkhorn manages assets directly through a wholly owned property management subsidiary of approximately 50 employees. Despite our growing footprint, our leadership team remains lean and dynamic, providing an environment where all team members work together to enhance portfolio performance.
