Feasibility, Investment and Capital Structure

Joel Arbuckle

Co-Founder
MBA, Northwestern University, Kellogg School of Management, with concentrations in finance, marketing, and strategy. B.S. Business Management, finance emphasis, Brigham Young University.

Joel brings over 30 years of institutional and family office real estate investment experience spanning development, acquisitions, portfolio and asset management, equity joint ventures, dispositions, and structured finance across multiple sectors (multifamily, single family residential, industrial, office, retail, storage, and hospitality). His career has taken him from large national advisory firms to boutique operators and family office platforms, with a consistent focus on identifying sound investment opportunities and structuring transactions that create long-term value for all parties.

At Kyma, Joel leads feasibility assessment, deal sourcing, joint venture structuring, LP capital formation, and investor relations. He participates in every transaction as a principal and co-investor, ensuring his interests are directly aligned with those of the landowner.

Civil Engineering and Land Planning

Ryan Bogren, P.E.

Co-Founder
B.S. Civil Engineering, Brigham Young University, 2000.

Ryan is a licensed Professional Engineer with 25 years of experience specializing in land planning, entitlement, and civil engineering for land development projects. Where most real estate firms must outsource the technical feasibility of a site, Kyma has that expertise in-house: from the first site walk through final civil construction documents.

At Kyma, Ryan leads entitlement strategy, civil due diligence, and engineering oversight across all active projects. His involvement from the earliest stages of site evaluation ensures that every project Kyma advances is not only financially sound, but physically and technically buildable.

κῦμα KYMA

Kyma means wave.

Value often builds quietly over time, in land, location, use, and capital structure. Kyma recognizes that energy and shapes it into lasting real estate.
