Why Is The Strategy Robust?

Private equity real estate funds generally follow CORE, CORE-PLUS, VALUE ADDED, or OPPORTUNISTIC strategies when making investments.

  • CORE is a low-leverage, low-risk/low-potential return strategy with predictable cash flows and CORE-PLUS is originally defined as "CORE" plus leverage, or leveraged CORE.

  • VALUE ADDED is a medium-to-high-risk/medium-to-high-return strategy which involves buying land or under leased or mispositioned property, improving it in some way, and selling it at an opportune time for gain. 

  • The fund strategy is between CORE-PLUS and VALUE ADDED with low-risk and medium return, as well as healthy cash flows.
