Investment Strategy

Core Investments

For conservative investors seeking portfolio diversification and high yields through real estate without undue levels of risk, RECP recommends the acquisition of existing well-leased office, industrial, retail, residential and mixed-use properties. On behalf of institutional investors, RECP is acquiring well-located, fully-leased properties with a view to developing portfolios that are diversified both by property type and location throughout the U.S.

Our objective is to provide strong returns and continuing growth in capital values. Risk thresholds are low and portfolio volatility will be minimized.

Opportunistic Investments

For more entrepreneurial investors, the primary investment strategy RECP has pursued since 1994 is the joint venture development of apartments and commercial buildings, and investment in value-add opportunities. The types of properties which RECP seeks include the joint venture development of rental apartments, student housing, age restricted housing, condominium and townhome communities, retail, office and industrial properties, and the acquisition of existing properties in which rehabilitation, releasing, repositioning and/or better management would add significant value.

Our goal is to build or reposition these apartment communities and commercial buildings and sell them upon completion to the institutional and pension fund community within a three to four year period. Real Estate Capital Partners’ excellent track record coupled with our ability to make a real estate investment more liquid is very appealing to investors.

Separate Account Investments

For both our private families and institutional investors, RECP is acquiring attractive properties, either for individual clients or a small “club deal” with, for example, four clients. RECP currently focuses on core assets (well-located, well-leased properties in major markets throughout the U.S.) and value-add investments (properties in need of leasing, better management and/or repositioning in the market). Such single asset investments generally have a holding period of five to ten years.
