Our Partnership
with New Again Houses®
From early on in their business relationship, they had a mutual vision of building New Again Houses® and Alta Capital Management™ with franchising in mind.
Together, Mark Pate and Matt Lavinder wanted to provide an opportunity for entrepreneurial franchise owners to build their own disciplined real estate business and provide investors with an attractive return.
Our Relationship
Mark Pate, owner of Alta Capital Management, has cultivated a strategic partnership with Matt Lavinder, President and Founder of New Again Houses®, and Sam Ferguson, Vice President and COO of New Again Houses®. Their collaboration is founded on shared expertise in franchising, real estate investment, and capital management. Together, they leverage disciplined operations and a data-driven approach to drive scalable growth and deliver compelling returns within the home renovation and real estate sectors.
In late 2012, Mark recognized the impressive rigor behind New Again Houses®’ systems and processes. This confidence led him to extend financing in early 2013, initiating a partnership that has enabled the expansion of New Again Houses® franchises. Their collaborative vision offers investors a unique opportunity to participate in a structured, proven real estate investment platform with strong growth potential.
Mark places high importance on integrity and professionalism; over the years, Matt and Sam have consistently demonstrated both exceptional character and outstanding business acumen.
Hear from Our Investors
We have been investing in New Again Houses and partnering with Mark for over five years and it has been our best financial decision ever.
What we like best about New Again Houses is that they work hard to create opportunities for first time homeowners. Which in turn working with Mark was no brainer. The processes between New Again Houses and Mark are down to near perfection which we really enjoy because it limits our time commitment. As a result, we will stay invested for many more years.”

During 2013, I was looking for a very low-risk investment opportunity that offered a fair rate of return.
Alta Capital Management and New Again Houses offered minimum risk with potential for an attractive return, so my initial investment was made in late 2013. As years passed and I had additional funds I continued to invest. During these years, my investment has earned a return of ten percent or better each year.”
— Charles, investor since 2013
“I have been investing with Alta Capital for quite some time now, and I must say the experience has been exceptional.
The returns on my investments have been consistently strong, and their approach is both transparent and reliable. Alta Capital has proven to be a great opportunity for any investor looking to maximize returns. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking a trustworthy and high-performing investment partner!"

What We’ve Achieved
Mark Pate started loaning New Again Houses® capital in early 2013 and brought on his first capital partner in late 2013. As of August 2025, Mark was managing $32.2 million for his own account and over 100 capital partners. While private lending typically charges interest in the range of 10% to 15% per year, we have stayed on the lower end of that range to work with high character individuals and to cultivate a long-term relationship for sustained, persistent return on our investment. We execute a promissory note on each house to provide funds to purchase and renovate it. For security, the lending company is named on the deed of trust filed with the county clerk. Since inception in 2013, we have had 1,000 loans payoff with no defaults and provided the capital partners an annual return on investment of 10%.
