FCP℠ has announced that one of FCP’s Managing Partners, Tom Carr, has retired from the company after 12 years. While at FCP, Mr. Carr played a critical role in helping the firm grow in areas such as fundraising, commercial office and manufactured housing investments and served on the firm’s Investment Committee. He remains involved with FCP as an investor and represents FCP on the Board of Horizon Land Company.
Over the last two years, Mr. Carr focused on the company’s internal organizational structure and leadership development, including the recent appointment of three senior executives to the newly created position of Principal. He was instrumental in establishing organizational policies and procedures, developing internal leadership and leading the company in its extremely successful expansion from a regional to a national industry leader.
“Working alongside my partners, Lacy (Rice), Esko (Korhonen) and Alex (Marshall), as we raised our initial and subsequent funds, expanded into 16 markets and helped guide the growth of the company and its people has been an extraordinary experience,” said Tom Carr. “Even as I leave to commit more time to our family business and to personal interests, I look forward to a continuation of my investment in FCP and its exciting future.”
Founding Partner, Esko Korhonen, noted, “We cannot thank Tom enough for his leadership and friendship over the past 12 years. He has contributed enormously to our growth, culture and values. We wish him all the best in everything he does and look forward to his continued involvement in our future investments.”

The firm consistently achieves superior returns for its investors as it applies a disciplined approach to commercial real estate investing with an experienced and entrepreneurial growing team. FCP has raised four value-add funds, including a $755 million fund in 2018, and was selected to act as an advisor for a U.S. multifamily separate account from one of the country’s leading public pension funds. The company’s current and realized portfolio encompasses more than 36,000 multifamily units and 4.1 million square feet of office space throughout the East Coast and Texas.
