Austin Magruder is a multifamily real estate asset manager and principal with over 11 years of experience acquiring, repositioning, and optimizing residential and mixed-use assets across the Mid-South and Southwest markets. As lead sponsor, he has directly overseen 11 acquisitions totaling 457 units and $41.7 million in deployed capital — delivering a weighted average equity multiple of 2.4x and a 70.2% IRR across four realized exits. His broader involvement across co-sponsorships and joint ventures extends to 750+ units acquired and a current portfolio valued at approximately $53 million.

Austin's approach is rooted in institutional-grade asset management: disciplined underwriting, proactive portfolio oversight, and a structured process for driving value at the asset level. Through Stoneflower, he applies that same framework as a trusted partner to family offices and institutional owners seeking third-party project management and asset management expertise — bringing the same rigor to their portfolios that he applies to his own.

He has built his reputation on transparency, operational discipline, and a demonstrated ability to execute across market cycles — qualities that have made him a go-to partner for family offices, institutional brokers, and co-sponsors navigating complex real estate environments.
