At Burgess Legacy Investments, we specialize in acquiring, repositioning, and managing undervalued real estate assets to generate strong returns and long-term wealth.
Headquartered in Manning, South Carolina, our focus spans across commercial properties, small multifamily, boutique hotels, and value-add motels — targeting deals that most investors overlook but we know how to unlock.
Our model is simple:
We find the opportunity — distressed or underperforming properties with high upside potential.
We create the plan — whether it’s converting a run-down motel into studio apartments, or a vacant building into a thriving business hub.
We raise the capital — bringing in investors who want strong returns without active involvement.
We execute — managing renovations, tenanting, operations, and eventual refinance or resale.
Our first full acquisition, Starlight Stays, is a boutique hotel turned cash-flowing hospitality asset — and just one example of how we blend creativity, strategy, and operational excellence to build real value.
