Quartz Lake Capital is a Chicago-based private equity real estate investment manager founded by K. Jay Weaver. The firm targets value-add and opportunistic equity investments in existing assets and development projects, deploying capital directly and through joint ventures. It also considers related structures such as preferred equity, platform investments, and participating loans. The firm focuses on primary and liquid secondary markets in the United States, with a preference for urban environments that blend living, working, and leisure and for infill suburban submarkets. In February 2024, a joint venture between Cedar Street and Quartz Lake Capital acquired land in San Diego's Hillcrest neighborhood to develop three apartment buildings targeting young renters.
