Company Background

Dimension Companies are a group of operating entities and SPE investment vehicles that the Neary family is involved with. Dimension was organized in 1975 and has participated in over 200 real estate investment projects over the years. While real estate has been our primary focus, we have invested in restaurants, retail hospitality, activist stock investing, and most recently tech. We have built the company based on relationships and have worked with the same investors and lenders for decades. We pride ourselves on “repeat business” and the fact that we have never been involved in partner litigation – not once.

Michael Neary founded the enterprise and family members have acted as directors, members of the investment committee, and in an advisory capacity over the years.
