RK Centers (formerly known as R.K. Associates) is a privately held, family-owned real estate development company which currently owns over 6,000,000 square feet of retail space and 100,000 square feet of office space. With a stable business model utilizing a minimal amount of leverage, we are poised to acquire additional properties as we continue to grow our portfolio. Our company typically closes on acquisitions in less than 30 days with its own funds; thereby eliminating the need to obtain financing. With over thirty years of experience in real estate, RK Centers has a proven track record of success with tenants, customers and the communities in which we operate. All of RK Centers' leasing and management is performed in-house by company staff.
The company was founded and is principally owned by Raanan Katz, who entered the real estate development arena in the 1970s. He has guided the company with a steady growth rate which has withstood numerous market cycles. His "hands-on" approach and conservative borrowing practices have resulted in a portfolio of first-class properties with an extremely low debt structure, resulting in RK Centers being one of the more stable shopping center operators in the industry. RK Centers welcomes inquiries from national and regional retailers who are interested in drawing upon our considerable resources for assistance in site selection or other expansion needs.
