Citrus groves in the Rio Grande Valley at golden hour

Family Office · Rio Grande Valley, Texas

EphraimFlores

I invest and operate across real estate, private credit, banking, and technology — built over a career in enterprise technology, and run today as a family enterprise from South Texas.

How I work

I take concentrated positions in things I understand, and hold them long enough to matter.

I would rather build alongside a good operator than place a passive bet — and most of what I own, my family helps run.

Capital & Partnership

If you're building something, call me.

I back founders and operators, buy and develop real estate, and lend against hard assets. If you have a deal, a company that needs capital, or an idea worth partnering on, I would rather hear it directly than read about it later.

Background

Background

I studied computer science and mathematics at the University of Texas at San Antonio, then spent twenty-four years at Teradata, retiring in 2016 as Industry Vice President for Manufacturing in North America. I took what I learned running demanding, data-intensive businesses and put it into a diversified portfolio in the Rio Grande Valley — one I run with my family, and mean to pass on.
