Yisroel Kreiser
Yisroel founded Woodlake in 1988 with a handful of apartment buildings in Northeast Philadelphia and built it, one acquisition at a time, into a portfolio of more than 6,000 apartments across six states. He still sets the company’s direction and still knows the buildings. His approach has not changed much in nearly four decades: buy sound properties, manage them yourself, fix what needs fixing, and keep them.
