WHEATON, Ill., Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — T2 Capital Management, a fully integrated private equity real estate investment firm with $1.6 billion+ in AUM, today announced the launch of Base Living, the firm’s wholly-owned, tech-enabled property management company. At launch, Base Living manages more than 850 multifamily units across three properties, as well as a 1 million-square foot-industrial property within T2’s portfolio. Moving forward, Base Living will systematically expand operations across T2’s entire portfolio including student housing, building on T2’s proven track record and expertise in the sector.

With the launch of Base Living, T2 welcomes Tyler Yates as Director of Property Management, where he is responsible for operational and financial performance of T2’s property portfolio, ensuring high standards of service and maximizing returns. Tyler manages Base Living’s 24 new team members across Illinois, Indiana, and Florida, and is supported by eight members of T2’s corporate team. He reports to Aaron Tink, Principal of T2, who oversees the firm’s asset management division and leads Base Living. Tyler brings more than a decade of residential operating experience across student housing and multifamily. He most recently served as Vice President of Central Operations and Asset Management at Kairos Living, where he oversaw a national portfolio of 5,000+ homes, 125+ full-time employees, and more than 350 vendors.

“Tyler’s deep industry experience and proven track record make him the right leader to drive this venture forward,” said Aaron Tink. “Base Living brings institutional expertise, technology-enabled execution and hands-on decision-making to every aspect of property management, strengthening T2’s fully integrated real estate platform from ownership through operations.”

Base Living utilizes Entrata as its core property management platform, providing one integrated system for leasing, communications, payments, maintenance, accounting, renewals, and reporting in order to eliminate duplications and disconnected handoffs. The firm also utilizes best in class artificial intelligence platforms spanning the full resident journey from prospect engagement and tour scheduling to maintenance coordination and lease renewals.

“At T2, we have always believed that successful real estate ownership requires a deep understanding of the assets and communities we serve”, said Jeff Brown, CEO and Co-Founder at T2 Capital Management. “Base Living serves as a direct bridge between our ownership strategy and daily, on the ground execution. By leveraging real time information and company wide accountability, Base Living enables us to optimize the resident experience while maximizing value creation across our portfolio.”

Base Living is headquartered at 100 N. Main Street, Wheaton, Illinois, alongside T2’s office.
