Robert "Bobby" Cayre founded Aurora Capital Associates, a real estate development and investment firm, in 2001. Under his strategic leadership, the New York-based firm has developed a robust national focus, investing in prime commercial assets throughout New York City and in other top US markets and gateway cities. Through Cayres direction, Aurora has adopted an unique value-add business model that leverages underperforming assets by repositioning them through large-scale renovations with the intent of integrating national retail brands and marquis office tenants.
