Forty years ago, Frank and Joyce Gelzer walked away from their corporate jobs to build something, for others, together. Frank and Joyce started JFG Ventures LP with the vision of putting the needs of communities, residents, and employees front and center. With this guiding vision, Frank and Joyce found properties that were worth restoring and curating over the long run – decades instead of days – through the ups and downs of the market. What others may have seen as merely a number on a pro forma, Frank and Joyce saw instead the bones of a vibrant community.

From these beginnings, JFG Ventures has come to steward a diverse portfolio of holdings that serve residential and commercial communities across Metro Atlanta including multifamily, manufactured housing, industrial, office, retail, hospitality, and self storage.
