Tempus Capital is a Houston-based multifamily investment firm partnering with relationship-driven investors to acquire and operate workforce housing across Texas. We underwrite for downside, operate hands-on, and measure success across hold periods — not headlines.
Stewards of capital, students of time.
Tempus Capital was founded by Gabby Dunn and Conan Liang — a husband-and-wife team with backgrounds in management consulting and global operational leadership. We invest and operate the properties we own.
The name “Tempus” comes from the Latin word for time. A business that is a constant reminder that what we do with our time is important. Maximizing efficiency and quality while honoring our goal of living in the present and share the creation of the wealth of time with our investors. Real estate, done right, rewards patience — disciplined acquisition, careful operation, and the compounding effect of cash flow held over years rather than chased over quarters. That orientation guides every decision we make on behalf of our investors.
We focus on Texas workforce housing — markets and asset classes we understand intimately and where we can earn an operating edge through proximity, attention, and relationships.
How we think about every dollar we deploy.
Conservative by default.
We model the downside first. Rent growth, expense ratios, and exit cap assumptions are stress-tested against multiple scenarios before a deal moves forward.
Operator-led, not financier-led.
We own and run our properties directly through Luna Solstice Properties. Our investors get an operator's attention, not a sponsor's spreadsheet.
Transparent communication.
Quarterly updates, real numbers, and direct access to the people running your investment. No surprises, no obfuscation.
Two firms. One table.
Tempus Capital underwrites and structures the investment. Luna Solstice Properties runs the building. Same partners, same desk, same long-term incentive — the operator's P&L and the investor's returns are the same line item.
Every dollar treated like our own.
We walk the property, answer the resident call, and review every line on the operating budget. Maintenance happens because it should — capital is spent where it strengthens the asset, not where it pads a third-party invoice. The result: a building that looks cared-for and an income statement that reflects it.
Decisions in days, not quarters.
Pricing changes, capex calls, leasing strategy. When the operator and the sponsor are the same firm, the chain of approval is the kitchen table — and the playbook is rewritten the moment the market moves.
Underwriting that learns from the building.
Running the asset directly means we see the rent roll, the maintenance ticket, and the resident note before they're filtered. The next acquisition is sharper because the last one's reality is already in our heads.
Two operators, fully aligned with every investor.
Management consultant specializing in talent and organizational change, following a first career as an investigative and health care reporter at The Wichita Eagle, Harper's, and Texas Monthly. Trained in industrial-organizational psychology at Rice, where she researched workplace resilience and bias before moving into consulting and, ultimately, multifamily.
Operational leader in oilfield services turned management consultant, scaling and solving complex problems alongside private equity partners across the industrial and manufacturing sector. Holds patents in oilfield technology and certified as a Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt before moving into multifamily.
