Who We Are

Comprehensive Real Estate Solutions Tailored for Today’s Market

At Providence Investments, we bring strategic capital partnerships and hands-on execution to every project. Our mission is simple: deliver dependable outcomes for our partners while building long-term wealth through smart, sustainable real estate investments.

Multifamily Investments

We acquire and manage income-producing multifamily properties in high-growth markets, maximizing returns through strategic asset management. In addition to acquisitions, we also develop ground-up multifamily construction projects, expanding our portfolio with newly built communities. As part of our program, we are purchasing newly constructed apartments utilizing 223(f) loans.

Development

We seek to partner with developers experienced with 221 D4 and 223F loans, in ground up multifamily projects and brand new acquisitions. These developments and brand new assets offer long term, fix rate non recourse debt. Our objective is to focus on delivering stable cashflow and wealth creation. As we partner with these top developers, we add value in overseeing the multifamily project planning, equity needs, construction, and stabilization, ensuring efficiency, sustainability, and long-term value.

Co-GP LP Equity Partnership

We secure high-quality real estate deals by providing Co-GP and LP equity and hands-on operational expertise. From project planning to stabilization, we ensure every multifamily development is efficient, sustainable, and delivers optimized returns.

Letters of Credit (LOCs)

Providence Investments satisfies the working capital and IOD Reserve requirements on a HUD 221(d)4 loan. Our solution reduces the amount of equity required to close without diluting their equity interest. These are also known as Letters of Credit.

About

John Mejia

CEO and Founder

John Mejia’s journey began at age 10, when he immigrated to New York City with his single mother and two siblings. Growing up on welfare, his “bed” was a foldout futon on the floor for eight years. Yet, through determination and perseverance, John earned a full academic scholarship to Syracuse University, setting him on the path to fulfill his dream of becoming a military pilot.

Guided by his 5F Principles – Faith, Family, Friends, Fitness, and Finance – John has built a life rooted in resilience and purpose. He served with distinction as a Naval Officer in the U.S. Navy and later as an airline pilot with US Airways before transitioning to real estate.

More Info

In 2012, John founded Providence Investments, where he has since led more than $500 million in acquisitions and development, encompassing over 4,000 apartment units across the Southeast. Under his leadership, Providence has consistently delivered strong returns while revitalizing communities.
Beyond his professional endeavors,
John is a devoted husband and father of two daughters. He and his wife have made their home in Birmingham, Alabama since 2001. Deeply committed to faith-driven service, he serves on the boards of A4one, Vapor Ministries, and USIEA, and is passionate about mentoring others to realize their potential and create lasting generational impact. John’s story stands as a testament that humble beginnings can give rise to extraordinary legacies—when resilience is matched with purpose.
