Graziadio Creates Institute of Real Estate
The Graziadio School of Business and Management at Pepperdine University has announced that it has partnered with Fred Sands, to create the Fred Sands Institute of Real Estate. Sands is one of California’s most successful real estate industry icons and chairs and is sole owner of Vintage Real Estate, LLC, which acquires and revitalizes regional malls across the nation.
Mr. Sands has also served as the chairman of California’s second largest real estate and financial services company, which was sold to Coldwell Banker in 2000. He also currently chairs Vintage Fund Management, LLC, which invests in growth companies and historically has generated returns that would place it in the top quartile of comparable private equity firms and is the founder and current president of the Museum of Contemporary Art.
