As a Real Estate Investor & Originator
Having successfully invested through multiple market cycles, we recognise that long term sustainable returns do not come simply from cap rate compression and as a consequence of the amount of capital in the market.
We have demonstrated in a wide range of market conditions that we can Identify opportunities to add value and we understand the factors and processes that lead to true real estate value creation.
We prize value creation over financial arbitrage.
We recognise that investment in passive assets, particularly in markets that have been subject to asset price inflations, does not generate long term out performance.
We understand that increasingly real estate is bound up with service provision and that Real Estate as a Service will be a key value driver.
As a Strategic Advisor
We recognise that successful strategies must be developed on the back of high performing management, advanced systems, reporting structures and risk and compliance frameworks which in turn rely on the establishment and maintenance of cohesive cultures.
“Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” – Peter Druker
Successful strategies are not simply ones that look good on a spread sheet or in a financial model. Businesses are people and implementation of strategy requires alignment and engagement.
As a Fund Manager
Fund Managers do not exist simply to “clip the ticket” they must preserve value, create value and return value to investors.
