David Mulvaney
Managing Director, BDM Capital Group
Most advisors approach M&A from a spreadsheet; Dave approaches it from the shop floor. With a career spanning over 35 years as a serial operator and private investor, Dave provides the rare perspective of someone who has actually built, scaled, and exited high-value enterprises.
His track record is defined by strategic shifts and aggressive growth:
- Operational Scaling: Transformed a local service business into a commercial security powerhouse, achieving 16x growth through product innovation and market repositioning.
- Global Manufacturing: Engineered a proprietary line of UL-listed electrical products, building a global distribution network and a manufacturing infrastructure that outpaced domestic competitors.
- Active Ownership: Maintains a diverse portfolio of active interests, from the Westport Winery Garden Resort to industrial e-commerce and commercial real estate.
At BDM Capital Group, Dave acts as a strategic architect for fellow founders. He utilizes his “owner’s DNA” to help business owners optimize their operations and maximize their legacy through a precisely executed exit.
Since then, Dave and Beth have been self-employed entrepreneurs and have been investing in single-family homes, small multifamily properties, and, more recently, in commercial assets. They’ve bought and sold over 40 properties, and their companies have generated over 250 million dollars in sales globally.
Dave attributes their success in real estate to knowing how to evaluate the value of a property today and recognize where value can be added to increase cash flow and force appreciation based on short-term market conditions.
The secret is finding and negotiating a deal in a great neighborhood that works for all parties.
Recognizing the potential for treacherous market conditions in mid-2006, they sold all their investment properties. They were 100% out of the real estate market prior to one of the biggest market crashes of the past seventy-five years. They re-entered the market after the market settled and have been active since. In 2015 Dave and Beth formed BDM Properties of Florida LLC and began doing business as BDM Capital Group LLC in 2021.
BDM Capital Group focuses on acquiring commercial real estate assets in emerging markets where there is job growth and value can be added. We help investors build wealth and passive income through conservative investments that provide predictable returns. Our process includes underwriting, acquisition, renovation, and the eventual sale of commercial real estate assets. We provide investors with a viable alternative to diversify their portfolio. Our primary objective is to preserve our investors’ wealth while creating favorable returns.
