Red Mountain Group is a privately held real estate investment and redevelopment firm founded in 1991 by Michael Mugel. The company began with the acquisition of a single distressed shopping center in Mesa, Arizona and has grown into a national operator with a portfolio exceeding 6.0 million square feet across 22 states. The firm operates a vertically integrated platform encompassing acquisitions, leasing, property management, construction, and marketing capabilities, allowing for direct control over the redevelopment process from acquisition through stabilization. The company's investment strategy centers on acquiring underperforming retail assets including vacant big-box stores, partially occupied multi-tenant shopping centers, and distressed properties that are typically 20 to 80 percent vacant. Red Mountain Group executes comprehensive repositioning strategies to transform these assets into occupied neighborhood shopping centers. The firm targets empty retail boxes ranging from 10,000 to 125,000 square feet and also facilitates build-to-suit developments for regional and national tenants.
