Equity Group Investments, L.L.C.
 PROFILE
Billionaire Sam Zell's Equity Group Investments is the parent of affiliates involved in real estate, restaurants, cruise ships, and other ventures. Zell has made his niche -- and a lot of money -- by purchasing distressed properties and turning them into profitable investments (for which he earned the nickname "Grave Dancer"). Zell's REIT portfolio makes him the US's largest owner of property leased by manufactured homeowners (Manufactured Home Communities), office buildings (Equity Office Properties Trust), and apartments (Equity Residential Properties Trust). As bargains dry up in the US, Zell is heading overseas to buy real estate and companies with his Equity International Properties fund.
