SDS NexGen Partners LP is a privately held real estate and investment firm led by Managing Partner Michael Mulcahy. SDS in the title stands for Shirlee DiNapoli Schiro, Michael’s mother, who serves actively in the oversight of the firm. Michael is joined in ownership by his partners and siblings, Tim Mulcahy, Erin Mulcahy Stein, Brian Mulcahy, and Paula Mulcahy Keane.

SDS NexGen’s roots stretch back generations to Shirlee’s father, Frank DiNapoli, whose parents immigrated to Santa Clara County – the Valley of Heart’s Delight – in the 1890’s. Frank co-founded Sun Garden and Mayfair Packing Companies, and he seeded the creation of a real estate portfolio that today includes office, retail, industrial, ranch, and raw land, predominantly in California. Shirlee’s family in partnership with her brothers – Phil DiNapoli and the late Dick DiNapoli – continue to invest and develop together as well as independently.
